I thought this really met the challenge well super colours as well. There seems to be something a tad 'off' about the size of the insect almost as if you want it to be a either a little bit bigger so you can see more details (though that may be because you have spoilt us before by your stunning macros). Having said that still undoubtedly a shot which I would have loved to take and a great image

too much noise reduction, otherwise a fine shot.

what a nice riot of saturated colors! nice choice of exposure to get the beautiful "star" effect on the lights. i like the smoothness of the background too.

Beautiful colours. I love that too-smooth surreal effect.

Good long exposure. Didn't like composition that much. Good luck.

I find the bright orange in the left sky distracting. Perhaps framing only the right two or only the rightmost cluster would have been more effective. The downward sloping at the bottom left also seems to pull my eye in an odd direction.

A great capture which I'm sure will make front page :- )

PP work has really grown on me - striking image - love the detail in the wing.
