Shooting the bee when the spider launched itself at it.

Shot hand-held. Bad technique really.

I like the action in this shot but it won't be able to compete with the water misting brigade!

The detail is insane and I love the color tones!!! Thought this would have finished much higher. Got a 10 from me.

The natural light here would have been improved by a hit of fill flash I think! Still, nice image- love that meal still stuck to the flow and it's web!

Oh, bummer for the bee :-( Very well captured and a quintessential slice of life in the bug world.
