Hello Antonio,
What a remarkable Mantis you're presenting here in this excellent shot. I wonder if it prefers pink flowers? Nice focus on the head, sharp details and amazing colour! I like the soft background.
TFS and welcome to TN, Ulla

Bonjour Antonio,
Bravo pour cette image spectaculaire. La couleur de l'insecte est incroyable. La composition et la profondeur de champs restituent bien l'attitude très particulière de cette curieuse bestiole.

Surpring color for a cone head mantis.

They normally hangs upside down. Did you rotate the pic or did you pick it up on this branch.

Crisp clear. Brilliant POV and composition. A pity one leg is cut but this is not too disturbing.

Excellent shot.

Hello Antonio and a belated but very warm welcome to TrekNature!

This is simply a magnificent capture!
What an outstanding species and what a perfect macro shot!
The details here are terrific and very sharp and the depth of field is very well managed - keeping the insect in great focus while blurring out the BG nicely. I would be very nice if you could update your profile in matters about the equipment so that others can learn from your experience, too, and also maybe even show us the EXIF data of the photos :)

Anyway, another fantastic thing here at this shot are the very beautiful and vivid colors on this Empusa. They really stand out superbly!
Excellent point of view and a simply but wonderful composition!
A definite favorite!

BRAVO and TFS
Horia
