canyon mantis

i just got back from a 5 day hike in and out of the grand canyon...i took a friend along too:








it was really amazing...

 

such wonderful imagery...!!!

that crazy cactus shot rules...!!! #3 from the top

 

Exceptional photos! Looks like a blast. The Grand Canyon is literally awesome.

Don't get any espinas de nopales in your dos cabezas, combatientito!

 

One of my most wanted to visit places in America. The mantis looks so at home there.

 

Graet shots!! looks absolutely stunning. I was actually looking for Jawas in a couple of them lol!

 

Must be humid, I can see him sweating on the inside

 

he looks right at home in the desert...did you set him free?

 

most awesome pictures!! such a beautiful place

 

Beautiful shots!

 

So jealous. Looked amazing!

 

mantis rules & great shots! looks so warm there.. freezing still here.

 

really cool pics, DB!

 

wow, some of the best toy outdoor shots ever!!!!

 

LOVE these pics, Toby!
Great choice of Mantis hiking buddy to bring along.
Hope you had an incredible time- the southwest is amazing!

 

AWESOME pics. I made the mistake of going to the canyon in the middle of July on my first trip. Must remember to bring toys next time. Not in July though. It'd melt the paint right offa my Zag.

 

Awesome photos Toby. I envy you getting out there.

 

Best I've seen in a long time...

 

GREAT pics!

That Mantis is nekkid....I'm

 

nice photos - it's great to see the mantis in a new habitat.
