The orchard weaver had killed the ant lion over night and in the morning the antlion wings looked liked this. The first touch of light lit up the dew drops.

Love the iridescence and all the dew here balan. Balan. The ant lion looks pretty shriveled up (well drained by the spider).

Hi Balan, love the play of light on the water droplets with the wing structures and colours in the background. I know for documentary purposes that having the ant body in the image tells a much better and more interesting natural story, artistically i think I might like a crop that just concentrated on the wonderful wings ...
