I forgot about cockroaches. Didn't see a one when I lived in the Bronx.

This guy was waiting for me when I got home one night.

The next day I found out when my building was scheduled for extermination--the third Saturday of the month.

I met the exterminator at the door with a plate of cookies.

This photograph shows the beauty of cockroaches.

Who says cockroach are disgusting and ugly.

We people should appreciate it more than to be afraid and hate it.

This is (I believe) one of the most beautiful cockroach in the world.

Even though it is tiny, one can see this species easily running around scavenging in this hill shining it's bright orange pattern.

Name: Blattaria Sp. or Blattodea Sp.

Size: 6mm

Area Found: Forest of Bukit Gemuk, Tawau, Sabah, Malaysia.

Inspired by the epic tales of my friend's battles with a cockroach in her bathroom.

SO. I'm taking the pictures of the gecko, and back up against the porch pillar for bracing against the shakes. After I finish, Brandon says "I didn't want to say anything while you were shooting, but that guy was riiiight over your head." I look to where he's pointing and shudder. I love every creature on the planet and their details, but there is just SOMETHING about cockroaches that enrages and disgusts me.

They get a bad rap, but cockroaches can be rather cute!

You are still same

Aren't they wonderful?

I'm sure I often get mistaken as a crazy woman...walking up some steps in Bangkok to cross the road I saw the cockroach and promptly photographed it. It was only when I looked up and realised that a local woman was staring at me as though I had gone mad. I can't help it though, I have a fascination for things that have died. To be honest though if the cockroach was alive, I'd have been nowhere near it!

Every night roaches by the hundreds would emerge and they seemed to enjoy munching on Acacia Beans!
