Whoooo!! wow.. thaks for all the great comments..

Was fun shooting this mantis actaually... just simple macro whilst holding a peice of white paper behind him.. had a bit of a battle.. several times he grabbed the lens and gave me a scare from the behind the magnifaction of the viewfinder... anyway, stoked to have a top 3!

Cheers, Tim

A real shame this wasnt bigger.. cause you would have WAY better score if it had been full size. It is a great capture.

Cool.. i like this.. i think it would have been better if you had bumped up the brightness levels to make the whites jump out more.

I think a more interesting point of view would have made for a better photo. perhaps a macro down low, looking along it... getting more of a feel for the texture of the subject.
