She called to me said I should bring my camera to the pool. She had placed a flowery table cloth on one of the picnic tables on the pool patio, and a small Praying Mantis had flown on to one of the flowers. Since we had recently attended a big screen version of The Princess Bride at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (hosted by Cary Elwes), the little fellow immediately brought to my mind The Impressive Clergyman, as portrayed by Peter Cook. <G> http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18052828 I took this image with my car key to illustrate how tiny the mantis really is: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18052835 We found a tiny ant, and fed it to the mantis: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18052856 He enjoyed his lunch at the pool: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18052849&size=lg The whole gallery is here: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=18052849&size=lg K-5 II S, FA 100 mm F2.8 MACRO Comments are invited and appreciated.
