Description
This little fellow was in our house, crawled on to a book while I was reading it, and hung out on my arm. I grabbed my camera, took him outside and put him on a tree stump. I asked him to pray and then took his picture.

One of my favorite insects and one I love to photograph. Well done and it seems you will have a great garden with these little warriors lurking in your yard.

Thanks for all your nice comments, I really appreciate them. This really wasn't that difficult of a picture to take, the subject was extremely cooperative. I have about a dozen shots of this little fellow, in my hand, on my book, or anywhere else I placed him. He was actually a bit of a camera hog! (The hard part was keeping my lab and three cats away from him.)
