I was looking around in my garden when I spotted a mantis climbing up a young palm tree leaf. I just got really low and waited ... eventually he/she reached a spot that I thought was compositionally ok and ... voila :)
I wished the background was more interesting , but the backlight compensates , imo , for any lack of interest.. I always leave things as they are never substituting backgrounds in PS.
Camera Nikon D800 , handheld , lens Tamron 90mm F/2.8 @F/13 , shutter 1/250 , ISO 100 , Aperture priority .
Single Neff file , imported into lightroom for exposure correction , passed to PS6 as a 16bit Neff , for cropping and minor spot removal , exported in sRGB jpeg for Web.
