Pitch Roll and Yaw with a Serious Attitude

Nice capture, but there's some stiff competition in this challenge. Your DOF, while pretty good, doesn't really stand out when compared to some of the other entries. More particularly on the wire, end of tail, head and legs of fly. I like the blurred background and overall composition, but the lighting is a little harsh causing some hot spots on the wire and fly. Still, a very nice shot. 6

Good DOF and I like the composition. The lighting is harsh making the highlights a bit blown out, causing a loss of color and definition. Also, while this is a beautiful shot, I'm not sure I'd consider it a macro because I know that these particular shells get to be very large. Still a nice capture and I have to give the benefit of the doubt on the macro thing. 6

Really nice shot and in any other challenge this would have been right up there at the top, but the competition is fierce, so I'm being a little more picky than I normally would. I think the DOF is good, but could be better at the tail. I like the movement of the wings. Also there are a couple of hot spots on the fly that detract from it's color and definition. All in all, a really great capture (and like I said, would have scored a 9 from me with less competition). 7
