Yes, really. Thanks, Albert.
Thanks, @DrNamgyalT.Sherpa for your kind words.
And yes, Phasmids doesn't make good macro subject due to their size/length.
So, I usually try to just take close-up of the face especially when they have interesting details, such as this one :)
That's a great job. I mean presenting this amazing creature in the form of a picture! I encounter this, the large variety, quite often but just give it a glance and pass by, because making its photos, getting the correct angle, etc., and presenting them is quite a task! Bravo, AlbertKang!
