PhotoFeed Contest - Macro Photography Round 82 ~ Praying Mantis
Hello Hivers...
The praying mantis or also known as the leaf mantis is a member of the Tettigoniidae family which is commonly found in various habitats such as forests, gardens, or even around our homes. Although classified as a common insect, the beauty and complexity of its body details are only revealed when viewed with a macro camera.
Photographing a praying mantis macro is not an easy task. It requires extra patience to capture the right moment. In addition, camera stability and adequate lighting are the main keys to getting quality results. Sometimes, photographers even need to wait for the praying mantis to move slowly or adjust to the available light to get the perfect result.
