[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Nepali cockroach started losing it's eggs, the minute it was bitten by a bright blue insect (wasp?). It died almost immediately. The insect came back to check out it's prey, but was foiled by a wandering chicken that was quicker.

Gloria, good shot and in my opinion, the only good bug is a dead bug. The detail is a little blown out but he is nicely sharp and in focus.

Hi Gloria,

Looks like a scene from one of those Alfred Hitchcock movie. Very sharp, good on details. A very nice capture, especially with the egg coming out. Coupled with your note, it is as if, one could FEEL death.

TFS, Kiran.
