The Mantis and the Fly: ISO 800, 244mm, f/6.1, 1/1600
I was watering our gardens when I seen this Mantis emerge from our Boxwood Planter.
I ran inside to grab the camera and hoping that she would still be there when I returned.
I did not notice the brave fly until I processed the image on a larger screen.

Blue on Green: ISO 200, 87mm, f/4.0, 1/1600
This was taken at Elizabeth Hall Wetlands in Lethbridge, Alberta. A blue eyed dragon fly resting in the marsh.
Wind was blowing pretty good the day I took this. Hard to get a sharp photo.
