wow..

i am very happy with so many kudos and compliments on this photo.

It is definitely my fave pic from that trip back in May, glad to see it inspires that feeling in a lot of others.

Thanks again everyone.

Really...it is a great image. The colors make it very interesting. Love the perspective, it has something original about it.

So many very excellent shots have a ho-hum factor. This one really stands out.

Wow! Mantis magnetism. Can't stop staring at those eyes. Even the magazine caption fits perfectly at the bottom. What a perfect cover shot. Congrats Master Mike!
