Not the best focus, this guy got tired of all the modeling and refused to stand still for any more shots.

It may be a little fuzzy but I like this guys look. Is this their season??

Focus is a little soft, you will get that when you try to do close-up work hand-held (I am assuming hand held) still enough detail for an interesting photo.

Oh! Just like my little ones! Except mine are from Africa, and keep their thorax bent forward, more like a leaf would look, I assume. Yours is from China, and they can make it thru a Calif winter. Thats why you can find them out in your yard, instead of just in pet stores, where I got mine. I put crickets on the end of a needle on the end of a bamboo stick, and they snatch 'em right off. Didja let it go, or are you "keeping him"? LOVE,ROB

Was he 'preying' on someone's leg? Good one!
Guest 09-Sep-2004 01:24
Nice!! Love the pose and the way the little one is looking up at you!
Neal Nye08-Sep-2004 23:51
And what a fine little friend he is. He looks at you like he can't believe how dumb you are. "Put that camera down and let's go hunting."

Like the tilt of his head Cheryl. A real pose.

Great photo, it was probably getting hungry as it looks like a junior.

Pretty darn good Cheryl. I haven't ever seen one in real life and had no idea they might consider modeling. Cute pose.
