Impressive Macro Agoes.
Colors and lighting well manipulated here. Good contrast achieved between the branch, Manti and the BG. I'm truly impressed with the detail you were able to capture.

"Ahh Grasshopper" as they said on Kung Fu (ok, so wrong species I know)

Brilliant composition and superb timing to capture both insects on the same branch. Colours are vibrant and details pin sharp.

Very nice Agoes - sharp, crisp image and the Mantises are well lit and standing out nicely against the BG.. I guess you get all kinds of insect life on Borneo!

Exceptional capture!

I have to say I can't mark the note 'useful' because it doesn't tell me anything about your photography, just about a completely unrelated subject!

I'm intrigued in your lighting in particular, it looks like you used remote flash or reflector?
