Thank you for your input

Interesting shot, when I fist saw it I didn't see the picture which may be your intent given the title. I would prefer the focus to be more on the Mantis.bug and less on the leaf. I think that would make it a better story. -- Charles

Charles,

 

I have to confess that this shot was a little bit of a happy accident. I was focusing on the bumblebees that were in this area. I just quickly got a shot of this one and then moved on. It wasn't until I was reviewing my images weeks later that I discovered there was an unintended subject in this one. I am just thankful that the mantis was sharp enough to be decipherable.

Allison,

Sometimes accidents can be our best inspirations and create our best moments. Many of my better pieces are coincidence or hidden in the shots I thought I was taking. This shot captures a moment in life that we miss most of the time. Charles
