Trotting

A perfect morning for a trot along the strand. The horses that is, we just ambled as per usual. Quite a few close answers on yesterday's mystery macro. A certain person knew immediately. The object is an egg case for a praying mantis. This is from the South African variant, apparently the NZ native one is prettier. Make of that what you will. Anyway the wide view today isn't quite looking up but the light and reflections were too interesting to ignore. Thanks to BobsBlips for hosting.
