The return of the praying monster

The mantis that had visited my desk days earlier all of a sudden returned. I asked her whether she would sit for a portrait session. First she was a bit shy about it, then she agreed - no more than 10 minutes, please! And the fee? She asked me for two little flies moving around on my desk. I agreed. Than she sat, patiently. "And no retouching, please." Ok.
