Food Chain by

Denver Botanic Gardens, Sept 3., 2010, straight from the camera
Camera Used: Canon Powershot IS3

Poor itty bitty bug! (being eaten by the dragonfly)….well, so goes the insect food chain…..I was astounded that I had such an opportunity to get this kind of shot, too! You should have seen the look on my face when I realized what a photo op I had!

About autumngirl

I’m a fractal artist and photographer, and love going outdoors for photo shoots of nature when I’m not indoors designing art using Ultra Fractal or Apophysis! I also draw, the old-fashioned way, but none of my drawings are on RB….yet….lol…

    Thanks, Sherri! Yeah, I wished I could have saved the itty bug, but that’s the food chain of the great outdoors for you…..all bugs gotta eat……just a shame they have to eat each other!

    Fabulous! A wonderful capture. I miss those gardens and the zoo there. They were my favorite places to go. Thank you for the little mini vacation.
