You did a nice job of coloring in the background. At first I did not like the antennas cut off but then decided it was cropped in an artful way. Cool eyes! Markjay

I was just trying to think, I did crop but it was not much,i shot near centre as for the colour, i painted the background in. originally it was against brick.

Man those are weird looking bugs. I don't know if you cropped this Eric, but if you have the space to get that head cropped in the center without having to clip those arms out I think this would be even stronger for the topic.

Very cute and expressive mantis Eric! I like those red eyes against the green background. What is that background - poster board? It's in the middle enough for me - good shot! :-) CJ

Who can resist those eyes?? What attracts me is the color and great composition and of course my eyes are immediately locked into the mantise's red-eyed stare. Obviously, the center of attraction. shu

me mom said she found me in a rubbish dump in an empty bottle of Dr. Jurd's Jungle Juice.
I definately remember she said I was not a gift from God.

You sound too intelligent to be an Oztrailian Eric. Where were you conceived?
Guest 20-Mar-2009 01:59
depends to what point you measure it.
I use a calculus program invented by my University professor and combine it with a digitictransometer.................in other words my thumb !

I forgot to mention the the silly un-Oztralian title.

Just misses the center and loses some impact as a result. So easy to fix with a slight crop. Well worth the effort. -tv

The bug looking side on makes this work really well. You did Oztralia proud Eric.

Great looking bug. I like these praying mantises. At first glance I thought the background color was overwhelming but the longer I look at it the better it fits. -Doug
