Strange Bug Macro Shot!

During the summer i was at fellow member Linds house. When i was leaving i happened to notice something tiny hopping around on my car. I pulled my camera out and took this pic. Im not sure what kind of bug this is, i just know that it was almost to small to even see. The day was fairly dark, dreary and raining, and im surprized that the pic came out at all. I forgot about this until i accidently passed by it this morning and thought i would share. Pic is taken with a Canon G3.

Strange... it looks like a baby mantis crossed with a grasshopper... not quite sure what it is but I would probably say that it's some sort of mantis nymph..

That is an odd one! I've never come across it in any guides I've got. By the abdomen and head structures, it looks like a scorpionfly relative.
