I spotted this praying mantis sitting on my front gate the other day. It managed to stay put as I ran inside the house to grab my digital camera. It just stared intensely at me as I photographed it for several minutes. I did not stay too close for too long in case it decides to leap towards me.

There's a natural elegance to this photo that is wonderful, especially so since the little critter did not ambush you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog--I'm having space issues in my little iBook, but I hope to get some more of our fun posted at some point today.
I love how you captured the mantis and the curve of the gate. It makes a great composition.
