A monster? Poor animal! I think this mantis is a pretty. The composition is original as you included part of your hand but I think a cropping of both left and right corner would look better. The shadow and the open spot on the right are a little distracting. Interesting foto. It's nice to see such a beautiful insect in close up A good capture, Rafi Regards - Emgy

Hi Rafi,
I have never seen one of this, except in this picture... And now that I know it was the first you've seen... I think it had been quite an experience...
Your friend,
MaLuisa

Great picture!!!!
MaLuisa
P.S. It comes out tht your ortographic mistake is a type of Orchid... You can see the meaning in Raameses picture... I pasted there the meaning... So, I learned a new word yestarday, and so did Raamses... hehehehe
