empusa

With the agree of Jack I share with you a little video made with my phone of a wonderful insect. It's name is Empusa pennata and it's a male.

Here are some proxy and supermacro photos of a little Empusa pennata on my little finger.

Here is a photo taken a few weeks ago of a Empusa pennata nymph male of about 5cm lenght. Handheld shot with D7200 and Laowa 100mm, cobra flash and homemade curved diffuser. ISO 100, F/11, 1/250s (as usual)
