Equipment

camera : Nikon D300s, Lens :Nikkon 105 f2.8, data exif : fl 105, iso 200, f5.6, 1/640 s. picture control on camera : vivid on sharpen +7

Inspiration

I was inspired by macro photographer in Indonesia such as Nordin Seruyan, andiyan lutfi, shikei koh and his other macro photographers. So I always learn to be involved directly in the macro world is very beautiful to always be immortalized. And mantis one of the very exotic animals to be immortalized.

Editing

yes, post processing with photoshop just for brightness/contrast, level and sharpen. and rotate 180 because actually mantis under leaf not above leaf.

In my camera bag

nikon d300s, nikkon 105 f2,8, flash youngnoo, nikkon afd 50 1.4 G, nikkon 18-50 f,3.5-5,6.

Feedback

to get a moment of small animals is better done in the morning and try not to come in contact with the hand. use twigs and so on to create a moment without making small animals disturbed.
