Praying Mantis becomes Prey
This picture of a bird (looks like a Babbler to me) with a Praying Mantis comes to us from Saransh Fattepuria via email. I like the fact that Saransh has photographed his subject from (more or less) the subject’s eye level and not from his own eye level. I also like the fact that he has used a wide aperture to throw the background out of focus.
