EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Frank Greenaway showcases the intricate beauty of a Live-bearing Cockroach (Pycnoscelis surinamensis) perched delicately on a stone. The side view perspective allows us to appreciate every detail, from its slender antennae to its fascinating profile. Against a clean white background, this studio shot captures the essence of these often misunderstood creatures. The horizontal composition emphasizes the graceful form of this live bearing cockroach, belonging to the family Blaberidae and order Blattodea. Its vibrant coloration adds an unexpected touch to our perception of insects as mere pests. In fact, this image invites us into the world of invertebrates and arthropods, reminding us that they too have their own unique place in nature. With nobody present in the frame, we are left alone with this remarkable creature. It serves as a reminder that even species considered undesirable can possess their own inherent beauty when viewed through an entomologist's lens. Frank Greenaway's photography skillfully captures both scientific accuracy and artistic flair in this stunning image. Whether for educational purposes or personal appreciation, it offers viewers an opportunity to explore and understand these live-bearing cockroaches on a deeper level.
