Great shot!
Great shot the POV is lovely, with the Mantis staring into the Abyss
Wowww, excellent picture in this insect and excellent color and composition !!! :)
Lovely macro!
What the...??? What is that thing? The head looks like a Mantis...but the rest looks like a worm with legs. What a freaky looking thing. Awesome macro though. Crisp and clear with beautiful quality and i love that black background. Just like Danny said...it looks like its staring into the abyss. Have a great day. #:O)
O yes this is a beauty...gorgeous
Great one again!!! Where the heck do you find these weird creatures! Never heard of most what you present in the 1st place - not to mention ever seen 'em! So thank you for that!!
Beautiful picture. this guy look bigger than the pic i shooted a few days before. the mine look .. maybe the young boy of that, is similar and was camouflaged on the plant. Superb focus and great details.
That's a weird creature, but your capture is great! Well done!
Beautiful shot of this unusual looking mantis!
Looks like a very small mantis, great macro Stuart
