El Yunque National Forest, Río Grande, Puerto Rico. The antenna didn't fit.......sorry. Don't know their id.

Canon 30D, Canon MP-65/macro w. macro flash, handheld, f/11 at 1/250 sec., ISO 200. At night. Iluminated by flashlight.

These stick insects with their long antenae make composition quite difficult! I feel the image needs a little more illumination to give it more impact.

These guys are difficult to compose - it is a little dark and it is a shame the antenae was cut off. You could try cropping much closer to direct attention to the heads so it appears that the cut off was intentional. That might work.
