Mantis

7D, EF100mm Macro
F10, ISO200, 1/250 sec

NIce pose and background. Perhaps a little more space on the bottom if possible.

What a super shot, I envy you so much, I wish I had access to these wonderful creatures. The colours and DOF are spot on, the light is just about perfect - a beautiful shot, I suspect this would fare quite well in competition.

Just wonderful -- the wings are amazing. I agree with a little more on the bottom, and also the top.

amazing shot,I like the way he explain himself.!:bg3:

Hi Ovidiu. An outstanding pose, excellent overall sharpness, nice light, and set against a clean background! I might be tempted to crop a little off the left. Alternatively, I think this could also make a pleasing vertical comp with a little more room top and bottom and a crop from both sides. In any case, this is excellent work!

I missed this one! Lovely image. Like the inverted pose and the BG. Agree with slight more space on the bottom
