Before leaving I should congratulate you on this wonderfully captured image... the tones and depth are perfect.
So sad story behind the image but glad you saved him, God bless you my friend,
Khaled.

Poor little guy,looks very sorry for himself, nice rescue John!It looks like it's a slightly different species from the ones we get in New Zealand,looks thinner,maybe just the angle?I have a shot of a very pregnant mantis taken just before she layed her egg case outside my front door,she's still there,guarding it maybe! Take care,Jacquie :)

Awesome shot and 'about', John!!
Great story! )
Thankfully we don't get those critters round here ~ if we did, I think Carole would emigrate!
Best regards, Chris

Nicely placed and composed John...he stands out so well with that flower behind him....good rescue..I guess you could say he repaid you in kind, by letting you take his photo :) looks like he had a lot to pray about too...
