I was driving along at 100kph when this praying mantis alighted on my windscreen. It hung around long enough to pose for this photo then disappeared.

Hi Lorri,

think i would've crashed if that'd landed on my windscreen! Nice opportunistic shot, welcome to TN!

Thank for sharing,

Paul

So you didn't have to go looking for subjects for your photography, Lorri :-)!
Welcome to TN at 100kph :-)!
Your íncidental' picture of a Praying Mantis is quite interesting, especially in view of the circumstances in which you shot it.
However, we look forward to seeing some more, and not necessarily taken while you drive your car!
Bye and take care.

Je trouve cette photo assez bizarre presque surréaliste.

bonjour lorri et bienvenue sur TN
c'est dommage il aurait fallut vous arreter pour nous la montrer mieux que cela mais la photo n'est pas banale.

Original!!!

Hi Lorri,

Welcome on TN!
And what a very original picture. It's a first for me to see a praying mantis like this :-)
Thanks for sharing.

Greetings, Nel
