A very nice set of Hymenopus coronatus pics. I love the choice of the Hydei with such bright red eyes as a secondary subject.

all of your photos are amazing, keep them coming

 

[Krissim Klaw]

I love how this species holds its claws. Always looks like they are posing for the camra, little prima donnas.

Thanks everyone.

Very nice. What instar?

L3 I think.

 

[rs4guy]

Yah, looks like an L3 male. I agree with Rich, the photos are great and the hydei with the red eyes does make a fine secondary subject.

Beautiful! The eyes are wonderful too, can't remember seeing that color.

Is that an actual orchid underneath?

Thanks all.

Beautiful! The eyes are wonderful too, can't remember seeing that color.

Is that an actual orchid underneath?

No. Don't remember what it is. It's a house plant with flowers, but I obviously don't know how to keep it, because it's already dead. I got a few more pics this weekend that I might post though.

I know the feeling Giesle. I try to be adventurous and go to a nursery and buy something beautiful for the frog or mantid terrariums and then it's dead in a week

And yes, more pics welcome
