The coloring looks natural. I get the impression you did some masking on this from your comments? I think it's quite good. Of course I didn't stare at the plant too hard. :)

thanks for all the comments guys. this is an old shot so i dont remember the deal with blueberry. i had been trying some milk splash shots so it may be wet from the milk. I agree about the border a bit but I did the last half of processing at 640 then decided i needed to crop in and then i added that huge border to get closer to the 640 again. It was more of a choice out of neccessity than something I really like. Thanks again for the comments. they are all appreciated. :)

I'm going to disagree with the other posters regarding the border ... I like it just the way it is ... the size compliments the tweezers ... I will agree with the pindot light reflection comment on the tweezers though ... love how shiny the blueberry is ... was it wet or oiled?

I like the photo but that line border is distracting.

I love the lighting, the colors, everything. It is cute but at the same time a little mysterious. Very Nice!

Comment by Melethia:
I do like the light reflections except for the one small pindot on the tweezer - in that case I'd like to seem *more* of a reflection or just a bit lighter to more easily define the tweezer. I'd lighten up the border - it does seem a bit heavy for the image. I do absolutely love the texture/color of the blueberry - don't know what you did to it, but it works.

Some kinda bug ;P

Comment by Blue Moon:
i think this could be improved upon by chopping off the whole right side of the image, so that the bug is almost centered.
