  I'm going to have to figure out your technique, Michael. Vibrant color on the subject with subdued color on the supporting elements. That combined with the stunning sharpness makes an image in a class of its own.

  Hey Aimee, I'm heading to Vegas for a few days (for work), should I put it all on black, or red?

  Thank you Karen - this one liked me too because he came in the house on my pant leg before I even noticed him.

Thanks so much Vicki - so nice to see you! I certainly appreciate your congratulations.

  Yowza *MICHAEL*!

My heartiest and warmest Aussie congratz for the EP and Finalist awards and all the accoldes heaped upon this marvellous Mantid.

Excellent use of flash and focus and a well posed subject makes for a strong image and interesting viewing. Great detail.

Here, have a big brown Aussie G'DONYA for your trophy cabinet.
