Cute mantis (and frogs). Good job on the light and composition, as always ;). I really love the first shot.

#1 excellent capture, it might be a little too centered for my taste
#2 the insect expression is very funny, if the composition was somehow different (dunno how) it would be my favorite.
#3,4 I prefer a lower POV
#5 now you're getting there, love this composition! :)
#6 amazing eye detail, we could almost see you if it wasn't for the diffuser :)

Splendid shots as is usually the case, Kurt. The first two are absolutely awesome.
