1. "My favorite picture - where mantis preparing to catch a butterfly. Unfortunately for mantis, butterfly was faster, and she was able to fly. I took the picture at the right moment, and it was something special for me, because I waited for two hours. After that I decided to call this picture "patience."





2. "I am interested in nature since childhood, and I always liked especially insects. Bogomolov I love most of all because of their rapacity, shapes and colors. I also like that they can rotate his head in all directions and look at you with a "smart" form. They can be found in grass. This is usually best done in the morning, because they usually sit on the plants - bask in the sun. "
