Monomad: The Mantis I Found in the Garden
For macro photography lovers, there is nothing wrong if all objects are good to photograph so that they are not wasted, whatever type of insect I find, be it bees, spiders, flies, or grasshoppers. One day ago I was looking around in the bushes in the park, I was hoping to find a macro object that could be my shot that day. I had been walking around the park for half an hour, but still found nothing. Until finally I saw a praying mantis on a leaf of wild grass. Well, I thought there was nothing wrong with taking a picture of the animal with the cellphone camera that I relied on.
This praying mantis is often found in this quiet park, the proof is that I found it again when other insects had gone somewhere. Especially when the flowers are not blooming and the sun is scorching hot for the past few days. This praying mantis is also called Hierodula patellifera in scientific language. I deliberately searched for references to its name on Wikipedia to enrich the explanation about praying mantises.
The thing I like most about praying mantis is the movement of its legs. The movement of its legs seems to point in a direction. When I was little, there were many myths about praying mantis, where the movement of its hands actually pointed in the direction of the wind, that was my childhood myth.
