Blepharopsis mendica - male, sub-adult

This is a rare portrait of an insect that shows character. Obviously, the character is in the eye of the beholder, but those are the only eyes we've got. The slanted eyes of the animal, the mischievous grin, the Pan-like horns: they all work together to achieve an expectation of some prank that's going to happen.

The lighting is good, maybe a bit on the soft end. The least point of this photo is the optical weight of the raptorial leg. Informative, but unbalancing the image. I'd suggest tighter cropping to get all attention to the head.
