at 180mm, 1/640 f/11.0, ISO 500,

metto questa composizione per raccontarvi la mia esperienza... Primissime macro, gironzolavo con la mia reflex e vedo una mantide appoggiata su questo fiore... mi preparo per fotografarla e arriva un'ape che non si accorge della mantide! "dai dai prendila prendila!!" la mantide punta e.... TAC! con uno scatto fulmineo (ho fatto la raffica ma è impossibile da cogliere il momento) agguanta la preda! ho pensato di avere una fortuna sfacciata! continuo a fotografarla mentre mangia e poi tranquilla si allontana... ad un certo punto si gira e mi guarda, come per dire "hai visto qualcosa??" mi saluta e se ne va... :-) potete vedere i vari scatti nella mia galleria macro

I care for two weeks, but nothing ... was still there but no longer has caught nothing ...
I do not know if it's so rare, but I feel very fortunate to be one of my first macro:-D

With four photos you knew well tell a story of their natural life.
It is not easy to capture the Mantis in action, even if it happened to a lucky few.
