Thats the sight you see as as smaller bug... before she eats your arms and legs and then the rest of you.
Awesome pic!

This has gotta be one of my favourite photos. I love the greenish-blue tone. It makes the whole photo have this apocalyptic type atmosphere. The clouds add to this. The mantis itself is just beautiful. I love the detail and how sharp it is. The leaves at the front are essential to this photo's artistic worth. The way they go in and out of focus is brilliant, something I value in photographs. Stunning work. Definitely a favourite.

i think the grain is too much for a quality print.

doesnt have to be huge, a 6*9 or something would be nice, mounted on glass plate on a wall would add interesting decor to a room

hmm, yeah. i DO plan on buying a prints account soon, once i buy a new camera. most likely before the end of the year. i bet i can redo this photo so theres less grain and higher resolution.

This one also, quite a feat. Looks like something out of a horror movie only the subject is just a mantis- its all in the way you captured him/her. Excellent lightling and tonality. + fav.

There is actually a horror movie about a mantis... it's called "The Deadly Mantis"... it's really old and not exactly scary, though.
