Shortly after this image was taken, the larger insect plunged his beak into the head of the bee.
Thank to those that commented.

Dramatic with plenty of tension. A really great macro. The bigger insect looks like some sort of Robber Fly and the smaller one a Hoverfly (fly face with a body of a bee).
