I almost didn't see what this was. Really nice shot, but would like to have seen a little more of its habitat in the background.

Thanks for the comments, and thank you Jenn, for the suggestion.  I've actually really been wanting and looking for some good backgrounds to shoot these guys with.  For this shot, I taped a sheet of brown poster board to the wall and placed a piece of dried moss on top of the chest deep freezer sitting in front of it.  Shot it with a single flash on a bracket.  The mantis was the perfect model.

Amazing.  It reminds me of one of the creatures from the Alien films.

I can't do this.  I wish I could.
