Prayers and More Art

My friend Dhiresha on Kona Side saw my blog and sent me a photo of a Praying Mantis who was visiting at her house -- on the railing just outside her apartment!  When I saw it I was IN LOVE with all the potential I saw and wanted to play with it and see what I could bring out, enhance and highlight.

Dhiresha has a great eye for composition, so I worked to maintain that quirky view, but bring out the mantis with an abstract twist.  Here's my first attempt, but I might want to try a couple other tricks.    What fun!
