This is a photo of a pray mantis that I took by my apartment a few days ago. I’m positing this purely out of conceit. Every now and then I take a really awesome picture and I’m like “WOAH! I took that?!” This is one of those pictures.

P.S. The pray mantises around here are such good models! Most insects fly or run away when you try to photograph them, but the pray mantises just stand there and pose. Plus they’re freakin’ huge, which generally makes them come out clearer. (I don’t have a very fancy camera.)
