What an amazing moment you have captured here. I have no idea how much time you had to set up the shot, or the technical difficulties encountered, but I do know that you have produced a truly fascinating photograph that has stopped me in my tracks to really study the picture!

This is entirely frightening. I know its just a bug, but it looks like a horror movie. Nice capture.

Excellent capture. This is on my list of shots I'd like to get myself. Terrific focus and colors. I know this is how it was, but it might score even higher with a rotation 90 degree clockwise. Anyway, it's beautiful.
