It was a very difficult picture to take, as the room was very much like a sauna - very steamy so it was difficult to keep the condensation off the lens. If you ever visit Bristol, our zoo has a pretty good replica of a small rain-forest for tropical insects, and are very successful breeding them. :-)
Beautiful indeed. The eye is fascinating and the detail wonderful. A great photograph.
