Scorpion - Macro Photography

Some months ago, late at night, I stumbled upon this creature hanging on a wall. This animal is one of those creatures with strong venom. It is a scorpion and I guess it was looking out for a prey feast on. While growing up, I learnt that they could kill snakes - I think the bigger one - this one is big though.

It lay flat on the wall with its hook curved within it and eyes glittering waiting for any animal it could capture to show up.
