Shame the left wing is cropped, but the photo other than that is really nice. 7

I'd have tried to back these with a neutral color--white, gray, or blacl--to make the colors of the subjects stand out better.

I like this - even the cropping of his right wing is effective. I like that the pole is angled. Nice light. The halo around his wings is a nice touch.

Man did you pick a hard subject!! What I have noticed when I take a picture with very little light is that I get a lot of noise. I see that this is what happened to you too. The image is also out of focus. Not every picture has to be sharp and perfect, but for a macro challenge it should be. I am glad that you chose to go "out of the box". This is not a typical macro entry and that is refreshing. I think that you should practise more with low lighting. I really don't know a lot about your camera to give you tips for that--I am sorry.

The lighting is pretty harsh in this, and it looks like you used a really high ISO - the noise in it really detracts from the colors of the peppers.
