I shot this Mantis after dark earlier this week. I had seen her mating earlier that day and was hoping to catch her eating her mate. That didnt happen, but the night shot was still freakin cool!
f/9
ISO 200
1/60 sec w/flash (5 years and 2278 days ago)
Really cool shot... but he's been beheaded! No body. Cropping?
Ha ha, thanks. Actually, I had the helmet on a mic stand in front of my grinder with a flashlight attached to the stand down low for this effect.
Very creative and really nicely focused with great lighting.
Much thanks!
Howdie stranger!
