We had my sister and niece over for a visit and were hanging out in the yard. My niece spotted the Mantis on the lawn and was immediately drawn to it. I ran inside and grabbed the camera to snap a few photos.Equipment
This photo was taken with a Nikon D3400 and a Nikkor 35mm F1.8 lens.Inspiration
The inspiration came from my niece and the Mantis being a cool creature!Editing
I did some basic post processing. Just some cropping and minor adjustments to clean up the image.In my camera bag
We generally carry our Nikon D3400 with the kit lens, 35mm Nikkor lens, 55-300mm Nikkor lens and a tripod.Feedback
