Interesting to see such a wide gap between scores by commenters (6.8, would have you at third place) and overall average (4.1, landing you at last place) -- one of the largest gaps I've noticed. The blur and noise contribute well to the artistic effect, an idea perhaps foreign to the 32 voters giving "1" or "2" scores.

The Game is Up

Lovely model and good concept for the challenge. The black triangle lower left edge distracts -- minimal doesn't allow cropping, so in-camera quick look at all the edges becomes important (a composition skill I frequently forget, which makes me more aware of it). Could use a bit more exposure to make the whites more glaring (befitting the dramatized setting). If in an auto exposure mode (where the camera tries to make majority of picture neutral grey), exposure compensation can do that (tweak based on preview or histogram, if the camera has these features).

Soothing colors, symmetry, and contrast. Well seen and well captured.

The blurred background tones go well with the colors of the insect. To my eye, cropping square to remove the right hand dark area could potentially strengthen the image.

Contrasting lines: curb, fence, bike frame
Moment captured: wonderful expressions, sense of motion
Processing: black and white excellent choice and well executed
I was looking for this in the top ten or twenty, if for no other reason that the happy combination of artistic elements enhancing an instance of very good street photography

Well seen, good combination of abstract and realism. I really enjoy the color and textures. Sorry to see one of my 10 scores down at 164th place. Obviously I thouht it should be much higher.

So now you rule the roost with the highest score ever using a Canon EOS-7D, and you've nailed the 13th highest score so far on DPC's Browse Highest Rated page. Good for you: well-deserved.
