This is great!

Mantis are my favorite insects.
I would like to make an oil paining based on this photo. Do you allow?

This is absolutely amazing. It is so close, and a perfect capture. You can even see the little dots of its eyes. Amazing.

You know..I don't like that green one(I don't know the name of it in English)
but in your work, it's cute.

XavierJamonet In reply to junehee [2008-12-30 17:08:08 +0000 UTC]

The name in english is "Mantis"... It's a stunning insect with particular facial expression (many SF films are inspired by this kind of insects) but, according to you, it'sa bit impressive... It is of course inoffensive for humans ^^

Thank you for your kind message Junie!

Brilliant compo, with bright contrasting colours and excellent DOF. Did you use the 100mm macro f/2.8?
Cheers
Mark
