Bela Macro!!!
Ficou um pouco superexposta, mas ficou legal. Bom contraste e composição. Não é facil tirar fotos assim.
Bom trabalho

Gory but interesting scene. I think this is a crab spider Synema globosum, feeding on a sphecidae wasp. The crab spiders always kill their preys by biting the neck, which produces instantaneous death.
Good shot, perhaps a little bit too much over-exposed and with excessive sharpening? The colours are excellent and overall a very good capture.

Nice shot Fabio,if a little bright. I love the colours in this spider and wasp. A good first post.Welcome to TN. (remember to write some notes about your subject)

Hi Fabio, welcome to TN. Great capture! I love spiders and spiders with prey are excellent. The ID for this, in case you don't know, is Synaema globosum - a crab spider. Maybe it's a little soft in focus but it's the first time I have see this spider so I'm not bothered. I wish you had included a note about it. Very well done.

Hola Fabio:
Uauuu!!! Què macro! Impresionante! Buenos detalles y dos actores muy coloridos para esta toma macabra.
Felicitaciones. Saludos desde Argentina.

OUCH! that looks nasty! Scary too! It's a very interesting looking spider. It even has it's own LOGO on it's back. The lighting is really harsh. Anyway, a good photo despite some noise problem. :)
