I am Lucky to take shot of this standing pose of mantis... Actually.. its a Protection pose.. when threatened from some big bugs or competitive other mantis.
I don't see any other mantis around, or can't see. because this was shot at night. with help of Torch. I have read that.. if in Protection pose.. if some one touch mantis.. that it will attack on you.. a mantis may strike with its forelegs and attempt to pinch or bite.:eek3:
Hope this one you all like it..
With canon 550D, 100mm macro
F:14
ISO:400
SS:200s
Manual mode, with built flash
Hand held, Vertical cropped.. little darkening. that it.
