Surprised Katydid

A katydid lying in the canna flower, it remained motionless attitude makes me want to shoot it, I saw the katydid red mouth and teeth, its long tentacles like antenna like standing. I'm wearing a mask gently close katydid, because I am afraid to disturb it. In the lens I saw it surprised expression, but it did not jump.
