couple of mantis shrimp pictures

These were just taken with a Sony Cyber-Shot 7.2megapixel so it's nothing too fancy. I was actually suprised how nice these came out.

snapped some pictures of my peacock mantis today

I figured I'd try to get some better pictures of him while feeding him a hermit crab. I feel proud, I think some of these pictures came out very nice.
