Reckon this creature came straight off the star wars set, I'm sure I saw it in the bar scene


Mayfly by Ajophotog, on ipernity

I surmise the film designers look for inspiration on the animal & insect kingdoms all the time.

I recall a program that looked at Alien and said the creature with its extending jaws was based on the dragonfly nymph!

It was one found in the house so placed it onto a stick and photographed on that. They don't tend to move much so pretty easy to do really.

I thought this was going to be figures! Wonderful shot and agree most alien!

I thought someone might think that, thanks for passing by Chris

Great image Alby, an not only does the film industry get visual inspiration from wildlife, they also utilize the sounds creatures make too.
