Mantis macros!

[Firenkyo]

I think these count as macro? I put my mantises under my microscope sometimes and get some neat pictures and videos of them. The quality is a little grainy, but I still think they look cool. Feel free to post your own pics/vids here if you'd like!

Rhubarb cleaning her mouth after eating a fly (she has a fly leg on her eye).
