I am not sure what to make of your comment. This is a photography website... It is a photograph. As for your feeling of horridness, I am not sure if it pertains to my work or the subject matter. Hopefully it is the subject, I know insects are not everyone's favorite!

Thanks for stopping by. Sincerely, Line

If I said I didn't like this, I would mean it as a compliment. I must say I admire this incredibly. I think the thing I admire the most is your patience. A rather wonderful capture for sure.

Patience is indeed the key! As I mentioned in another post, images of insects mating or with a prey are actually a little bit easier to capture as they don't fly away or if they do they don't go very far. They don't want to let go of what they caught!

"Mating or with a prey".... LOL, hopefully mutually exclusive.  A superb (7) macro... Mike
