    Honorable Mention in Nature / Wildlife

This scorpion made its way in the interiors of a gallery and I happen to be there on an assignment to photograph turtle specimens on display. I wasn't convinced about the safety of the dark wanderer with a sting, and my fellow species too so I relocated this beauty of an arachnid to a nearby tree. Before saying goodbye and going our separate ways, I took a shot. Scorpion have an evolutionary history of over 400 million years. They have adapted to a wide range of environmental conditions and can be found in all continents except Antarctica. There are over 2500 described species globally.
