I agree with the rest great shot. I don't know what type of mantis this is but I've never seen one like this in NJ. I too love the world of macro, it helps to show us some of the tremendous beauty in tiny things that are around us every day. I'm on the steep learning curve as well,I always want more DOF in my shots. Keep reading articles on the web, I like the Nikonians.com web site, free to join and they have a very active macro forum where I've learned a lot. I'm sure Cannon has a similiar site as well but there are only so many free hours in the day. Keep shooting it's digital so the cost is right and you will only get better.

very nice job Luis, honestly i think the mantis is way more spectacular than the wesp macro IMHO (probably because its it not such a common species over here).
