[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A head and shoulders shot of a Preying Mantis.

This photo was taken unconventionly. Using my Canon Power Shot A80 camera, I attached a 6x magnifying glass to the front lens. Camera settings were Macro and full zoom applied which is 3x. This method enhances the cameras ability for close ups but gives a very shallow depth of field

Hi Doug,
What a clever way for you to accomplish this great macro!
A great POV that captures a comic expression on this bug face.
Good exposure and focus.
Incredible presentation of the red mandibles (?)
TFS. : )
