Description

Stasera una foto molto difficile da ottenere , ma incuriosito dal colore ,che si confondeva coi colori autunnali ( è la prima volta che vedo una mantide di questo colore , ho pensato che forse si è messa la divisa autunnale ), mi sono intestardito nella foto , cercando di farla spostare e venire alla luc e, ma non troppo bruscamente per non farla fuggire ( lo ha fatto più tardi inoltrandosi nella sterpaglia più fitta e sparendo ). D’altra parte , come ho già avuto modo di dire , le cose difficili mi piacciono di più. Foto scattata con Tamron 90mm Macro , aiutandomi con piccolo flash anulare per aprire le ombre . Tonight is very difficult to get a photo, but intrigued by the color, which mingled with the autumn colors (this is the first time I've seen a mantis of this color, I thought maybe you put the uniform autumn), I was stubborn in the picture, trying to displace it, and come to luc and, but not too quickly to keep it away (it did later in advancing densest undergrowth and disappearing). On the other hand, as I have said, I like things more difficult. Macro photo taken with Tamron 90mm, helping with small ring flash to open the shadows http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantis_religiosa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_mantis Ho scoperto poi , nel link sopra che il colore marrone è molto comune ( probabilmente ne ho viste poche nella zona da me frequentata ). I found out later, in the link above that Brown is very common (probably a few I've seen in the area frequented by me). Good evening and good week Thanks for the comments and the favourites of previous images

An excellent capture Mario, I don't think it's warm enough in the UK for these in the wild.

A beautiful specimen. I have never seen a brown one, only green. It is a treat to see. Great shot. Un bello esemplare. Non ho veduto mai marrone, soltanto verde. È un ossequio da vedere. Grande colpo, è una bellezza.
