My Favorite bug.
Cricket I fed to a three inch Mantis
Introduced a six inch devil, a spider.
Cricket in one arm
Thrust out the other
Sheered off three legs

This is different because of the sepia tones…somehow it allows you to pay attention to the shapes and features more. Alien-like and beautiful!
