Description

Spent some time out in the field today practicing with my macro lens in manual mode and stumbled across this little fella. Thankfully he stood very still for me. 100mm Macro, ISO 400, F11, 1/90, custom white balance on a tripod. Very interesting little characters... He was watching me just as much as I was watching him.

Exif: F Number: 11, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/90 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 40D

Very cool pose and great background for this mantis -- a gardener's friend. Nice macro, Scott #1310417
