Praying on Rosemary

I shot this photograph while at my grandmother's house. It's a praying mantis spending a sunny afternoon exploring a rosemary bush. I just loved the various shades of green and how the light made some parts of the bush appear to be the same color as the insect. Click on the image to see the details. The praying mantis is such a fascinatingly strange looking creature. It's head looks almost like the stereotypical image of an alien.
