I took this picture of this praying mantis earlier this month with my phone but I decided to post it now as I hadn't had a chance! I was actually at the tennis courts at night when I noticed it! I had picked it up once and when I was leaving I decided that I would take him home and take pictures in the morning! That is when he flared up and I quickly pulled out my phone and took some pictures! I just love the feel of this photo! So very cool! He obviously didn't want to come home with me so l left him there! :) I really love the shadow too made from the lights!
