I have taken these photo's almost a year ago and still can't decide on which one I like better. Finally I belong to a site where people aren't afraid to share their opinion...
So, who would like to go first? What do you think?

I like Praying Mantis Two better. There is less distraction in the background.

I like the first one better.
Is it "Praying Mantis" or "Preying Mantis"? I thought it was the former.
Edit - I meant the one on the left, which is technically Praying Mantis 2.

| I like them both! Great shots. I slightly prefer Praying Mantis Two slightly because there aren't shadows crossing its beautiful face. :) |

Hmm. I am not sure. Does anyone know that? Kinda of embarrassing but I was never really know for my spelling...

I googled it, I was not sure either, and it looks like it is "Praying Mantis". I assume because it looks like he is literally praying :-)

Dammit! OK. Time to change the photos...
Thanks a bunch though. I would have never noticed...

OK. Fixed. If you already seen them once you will probably have to hit refresh to see the correct spelling. Not that that changend much...
Thanks again. |

| For me, it is Two. I like the nice natural-looking leaves and the angle you shot it from. In Praying Mantis (one) there are some grass stems that criss-cross distractingly with other lines in the background. |

| Thought I would ask again since it may be a different crew on this time of the day than in the afternoon... |

| I prefer Praying Mantis Two. Both are very nice but in the other one the straw (or what it is) in the forground seem litle distracting. |
