How you doin' ?

this is absolutely stunning Ingrid ..
everything about this works .. especially the square crop ..
but the colours and dof are actually quite exquisite ..
especially love the focus on the praying mantis's head .. and of course those eyes ..
congrats on the ribbon .. :)

another Larry masterpiece ..
when are you going to have an exhibition of your bird and insect photos .. ?? ..
and i hear you about not even noticing the bee till you saw it on your screen .. that's happened to me often ... a real gift can appear on the monitor that i didnt notice on the camera ..
i'm so sorry about the score going down before deadline .. can be quite discouraging .. i'm so glad you got the blue despite that drop ..
and many congratulations .. the details on the bird and flower and bee are awesome .. but the gorgeous oof background is to die for ..
just wonderful .. :)

ahha .. Liam again .. and looking very very handsome and relaxed in front of the camera ..
you are such a brilliant photographer Anita and you do portraits so beautifully ..
i've often imagined being a fly on the wall when you create your magic ..
anyway .. many many congrats on your place in this challenge ..:)
noting that there's not a vote under 6 .. except for the expected vote of 4 that most of us get on lots of our photos .. :(

congrats again Jayne .. :)
