Hello Ganesh. This is really clever. I had a hard time figuring out what is it until I read your note. The light catching on the mouth is brilliant. Well done and best regards. Jusni

Hello Ganesh,
A fine close-up macro of the head of a Praying Mantis from a great frontal POV and in a great composition. I like the title too.
TFS this humourous image,
Have a good weekend,
Ivan

Hello Gannesh,

What an interesting shot!
It was dificult to distinguish its form from the thumbnail!
Good details of the face and very exact colours.

There is some noise present which is easy to remove and does not detract from the shot!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Ganesh,

A very unusual view of a mantis! Love the face - especially the mouth. Very clever and interesting shot.

Grazie e complimenti.

Hi Narayanan,
another interesting macro from you. It is nice. When I open the photo firstly, I asked my self what is this:) Then, I saw interesting face of the mantids, similar E.T.
Thanks for sharing, have a nice weekend

Hi Ganesh Ji,
A good portrait of this Mantis. Focus is good and also the composition very nice. But it is a bit noisy. I think due to sharpening. Because of thie EXIF where you have set an ISO 100 and with your camera 350D/XT noise is not visibel unless heavily cropped. Anyway a nice try. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Daring close-up, Ganesan.
The shot verges on abstract until one reads your note.
Perhaps drawing back a little would have given you sharper details on the face.
