Giant Indian Praying Mantis - And then it Attacked my camera! It actually managed to jump onto my Camera!!! I had a tough time getting it off the camera without hurting it! Now thats a fearless Mantis!
There always so many spiders and webs around, but none of them ever seem to have caught anything, so I watched in fascination as this spider wrapped up an unfortunate insect.

Yesterday I was reading the flickr blog entry about Reverse Lens Photography (http://blog.flickr.net/en/2010/05/07/turn-your-lenses-upside-down/) and got inspired to put together my Canon 70-200mm L 4f with my Tamron 28-200mm 3.8-5.6 and this is one of the results.

Found this huge Long-horned beetle underneath the lease lights near Oungre, SK on the evening of July 1st. Apparently they emerge as adults in lartge numbers after a heavy rain which is exactly what happened the day before.
