What a beautiful shot. The mantid looks like she is made of fine porcelain. Stunning photography. Absolutely stunning.

amazing sharpness here! A few questions... is this taken with a tripod, and why does the shot info say this was taken at 60mm if you said you mainly use mpe 65mm

i use canon 60mm macro about 5% of the time to get full body shots of butterflies and dragonflies

With that coloration, I bet in the wild it really stands out. At least, when it's not perched on a white orchid.
