A scene from the movie Loom, depicting a spider and moth (image: Polynoid)

Talk about inspirational.

I want to share a short film with you – one that has been inspired by nature. If you love the natural world you should love this.

The film itself is also inspirational – to filmmakers, natural history documentary makers and people like myself who enjoy looking at nature in as many original ways as possible.

The movie is called Loom, and it tells a simple story - of how a moth is captured in a spider’s web, and how despite its best efforts to wriggle free, it succumbs to the spider which feasts upon it.

It’s just over 5 minutes long, and you can view it here.
