little black praying mantis


today, again I will show you, various types of insects that are unique, strange and rare, of course this will be a special picture for you to see.

You may often hear this type of praying mantis, but what you see is a type of praying mantis, which is large, and has a very diverse color, and different shapes, in adjusting the place of life.

the type that you will see is praying mantis, which has a very small size, if in size, from some other praying mantis.

like what ..? type of praying black mantis, what I mean here, let us see together, in the picture below, and I will explain, according to what I know, on my way, looking for this type, black praying mantis.

before the sun shines, leading to the forest, then this type of praying mantis, has been above the leaves, waiting for the sun to shine, with the aim of waiting for other insects, the type of leaf flies, which will perch on the leaves, which will become their prey.

but, unnoticed by this kind of praying mantis, I have been in the first place, in a position, which he will descend upon the leaf. thus, I slowly took some pictures, with a camera that I had prepared from home, specifically for aiming and searching for this type.

like you see in the picture above, that's the position, if it's above the leaf, I'm right next to the tree, but ... in a hiding position. You can see also, the fine grains on the leaves, the granules, morning dew drops, which have not yet disappeared.


Image in macrophotography appearance


after paying attention to several styles, both of these praying mantis hands, I immediately took several pictures from close range, using photomakrophotography techniques, but my main goal was to really hope, being able to take pictures from the direction of his face.

However, I continued to fail, because praying mantis, continued to move with style, habit of praying mantis, all of his hands and head, moved erratically, so that my camera's focus was also slightly disturbed.

like the picture below, when in fact, his face has become the target point of the focus of the camera, uh ... uh ... suddenly my shot missed, because ...., mantis praying, turned towards another direction. it's my fate in the field, when taking this picture.

when I point the camera lens head towards the leaf, then ... it is certain that the type has known my existence, has been there beside it, it is not surprising that, this type, will only get ready, to fly.


Face part

because of my position, no longer comfortable being in this location, I tried to get up, from a squatting position, "because some ants were already in the cracks of my pants, which I was wearing", then I took another shot again, at the locust's face, from a distance, this condition, I hope you all, can understand, because the lens that I use, not the original macro lens "hehehhe" only macro lens "modification".

in the second picture, I still haven't gotten a perfect picture either, because of the fast and changing movements of this type of insect movement.

in this final section, I will show, this type of insect, is watching, the movement of the leaf fly, and waiting for the point of weakness of the fly, which will become its prey.

You can see in the picture below

thus, this is what I can show you all, wherever you are, while going on your vacation day with family, hopefully, you have a great day, with family or friends, during this holiday period.

I end with the words, greetings @sultan-aceh
