Terrific capture, has great balance. Not sure of the safety side of it tho. 8

If I remember correctly from Pilgrim at Tinker Creek , isn't the dude about to get eaten alive? Bummer.

for now, doesn't the female eat the male afterwards?

Considering the outcome for the male this may have been a better fit in the Risk challenge. :D

Or perhaps not so safe, isn't someones head about to get eaten???

Funny title, in that the female praying mantis eats her mate after doing the deed. The pic is really rather vivid. In this challenge, I feel it sort of doesn't fit. Not necessarily DNMC, but I know the poor schlub is going to be eaten so safety is not what I think of...RISK would have been a better home.

...and just seconds later she bit his head off - oh the irony of it all.

Ironic title, the female mantis will often eat their mate!

Back to comment and bump: You've found a humorous title to fit an image into a safety challenge that really doesn't relate strongly to safety. For that, I am going to give you a bump. According to the histogram on this image, the tonal range appears to be concentrated to the dark half of the histogram. A small bump of the midtones using a curve layer will both brighten and improve the colors of you image. Feel free to send me a PM if you need a better explanation regarding curves and the histogram.

I think this is more in the "risk" category. ;^) Excellent photo.

Good photo, but if the prating mantis are mating... the females is eventually going to kill the male.

I was expecting some shots like these featuring people, this is certainly a different take! Nice focus and colours.
