Nice photos. I love the dead leaf playing dead. I had to laugh when I saw it because one of mine did the same thing when I picked it up. I never thought to photograph it like that.

Thanks! It's pretty difficult to NOT scary deroplatys, I had a lot of difficulty to make proper photo without playing dead
