, 1/40 f/8.0, ISO 100, tripod.

Ho tante foto nel mio archivio che non vi ho ancora mostrato, lo scorso anno da maggio a dicembre ho scattato 40.000 foto. Tante di queste nemmeno io le ho più guardate perché non mi piace stare troppo tempo seduto davanti al computer. Preferisco passare le mie giornate in natura, trovare e riuscire a fotografare gli animali richiede tanto tempo e fatica. Ma io sono ostinato e anche quando vorrei starmene a riposare, mi carico di attrezzatura e vado alla ricerca delle bellezze della natura. Questa è una delle diverse foto scattate alla mantide i primi giorni di agosto, durante 5 giorni di esplorazione continua. L'ho incontrata il primo giorno alle 4 di notte, mi sono fermato a fotografarla per circa 10 minuti senza spaventarla e poi ho continuato l'esplorazione. Dopo 2 ore, al sorgere del sole, sono ritornato nello stesso posto per cercare di fotografarla di nuovo. Lei era sempre lì dove l'avevo lasciata ma la luce era molto poca e non mi piaceva, così l'ho fatta salire lentamente su un rametto e l'ho portata in una zona più adatta. Il sole lentamente spuntava dagli alberi e illuminava tutto il terreno, sono rimasto ad osservarla e fotografarla per circa 2 ore. Poi, quando la luce è diventata troppo forte, ho lasciato la mantide in un posto all'ombra e mi sono seduto sotto un albero a riposarmi; mancavano poche ore prima di riprendere l'esplorazione. Purtroppo quella mattina si è verificato un imprevisto che mi ha fatto parecchio arrabbiare. Stavo usando un monitor esterno per non stancarmi gli occhi guardando quello della macchina fotografica. Purtroppo mi sono accorto troppo tardi che era difettoso, l'esposizione che mi mostrava il monitor non era quella corretta e ho regolato male le impostazioni. Le foto sono uscite un po' sovraesposte ma sono riuscito a recuperarle, non volevo assolutamente perdere i ricordi di questo bellissimo incontro. La mantide è molto rara dalle mie parti e incontrarla è sempre un enorme soddisfazione. Nei giorni successivi l'ho incontrata altre volte sempre nello stesso posto, sono rimasto ad osservarla per ore e l'ho vista anche cacciare.
