Comment by Melethia:
Composition works well for this shot - shows both the camoflauge capabilities of the dragonfly but provides enough contrast with the dark upper triangle to give him (or her) substance. Good light and color (which is nicely NOT overdone.) With these closeup bug shots, focus had to be dead on if there's no other story to tell other than the cool nature of bugs.

Not too sure about the graininess. I get the idea, not sure if it works for me. Great eyes though!

I don't think the high key/contrast and selective coloring work well toghether in this image. Lovely model.

This was one of my top two picks for the challenge. Congratulations on an excellent shot - difficult composition and lighting situation and you carried it off very well! And for the record, I love the shadow, and I love how it's not all there.

I like the feel of this, but the shadows under your face and lip takes away from the overall image.
