Wow! You captured a fine image here, Verity. Great detail, design and color. The angle of your subject works well in the composition. A little manip in the background would hide the tilt of the horizon, although because of the gorgeous subject, it is barely noticeable. Overall, a pretty cool shot. I'm jealous.

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry D. Thoreau
Great macro. Full of clarity and great color. Very well done.

"Acknowledge yourself for how far you have come, instead of how far you think you have to go." I'm always happy to see you at My Gallery. I appreciate all of you. Thanks, Anita
I wish I could do that with my knees..lol...but I wouldn't even be able to see it if the macro here wasn't as crisp as it is...it's amazing. They really are quite colorful, I hate to say, and destructive, as I remember in swarms...let's hope he's not TOO successful if those are mating calls you're hearing :( The contrasts are stark and can be seen most readily with all the markings. I have to agree with Cyberbod that the whole photo would be better served if the background were blurred as much as possible, so that you wouldn't be able to see that horizon tilt..but I'm not complaining..excellent job :)PJ

"We consider the artist to be a special sort of person. It is more likely that each of us is a special sort of artist." Elsa Gidlow
Wonderful clarity and color. The background is disorienting and thus distracts from the subject. You could blur it down to unrecognizability or replace it all together. It would be worth the effort because the insect is so impressive.

Wow....now that's a closeup. Great shot. The clicking sound? They are wind up toys.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

I was so impressed with the color and clarity on this lil' critter that I didn't even notice the background until I took a closer look. A great shot Verity! Brava!!

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
