Christmas Portrait

Southern California

We still have "Stubby," as my hubby calls her, because she is missing the one leg at the "elbow" but she gets along well as long as I furnish her with crickets.

Sony Cybershot
1/30s f/2.0 at 9.7mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Beautiful color and DOF...Stubby isn't half-bad looking either :-)

Great shot. I think it's so cool you have a praying mantis as a pet. Thank you for taking care of her!
