    25. torrbrae - New Zealand Glowworm (Arachnocampa Luminosa)

    is mixed up though, unless new Zealand glowworms live in clouds (never been to New Zealand, so maybe.....) ;)

    Decisions, decisions...
    Voting was very difficult as there were so many superb images in the gallery! Usually, I hit "vote" and the die is cast, but seems I wasn't logged in and I had to cast my votes all over again. :D I stayed with my original choices but just want to say how very hard I found it. Way too many great shots! It's good thing, I know, but wished I could choose 15 or more this time around.... clap.gifclap.gifclap.gif
