Hell!!!

Description

Took this one during a small after lunch walk in the garden.
These "paper" flowers (that's how I call them, even though they are not paper, they are real ones) have lots of these spiders, "misumena vatia" or crab spiders (have a few photos of them in my gallery The Yellow Killer by  Vasco Misumena vatia After Lunch by  Vasco Yellow Killer by  Vasco Yellow Killer II by  Vasco .
I really liked this one because the flower almost looks like flames, and if the flower looks like flames and the little (less than 1cm) grasshopper (Leptophyes punctatissima) is dying this is his Hell! Hence the tittle!

Really cool photo. I like the fullview version more :p a shame about the size here, it kinda killed the details of the bugs

Good work. Colourful and well composed. Looks like the DOF is on the heart of the flower and the spider's face is on the border, DOF-wise. Maybe needed to close the aperture one more stop.

These Thomisids are normally well camouflaged. This one looks a bit out of place. Did you find it there? He still seems successful.

You could title this, "Hell!!! Ten minutes earlier" since I looked at the other image first... ;)
