This is fabulous, Roz! I love this oh-so-clear little grasshopper surrounded by the magical greens and golds and glistenings. My pick for the blue. 10

Roz, this caught my eye during the challenge and again when reviewing the results. The soft colors and textures are so beautiful against the butterfly�s sharp eye and proboscis. A wonderful shot!

Wonderful study of this grasshopper in its environment. Lovingly photographed. The bokeh is amazing. Off-center, in my opinion, might have worked better.
Beautiful.

Roz, I have many more images to take in from your portfolio, as it�s prolific and the images deserve time and attention. But, this one TOTALLY blew me away the moment I opened it. Literally, I said �wow!� The technical execution of those perfectly crisp, sharp ants, the composition, and beautiful shallow DOF�and those colors! I took a look at your exposure settings and think I may be using slightly too shallow DOF when I shoot insects. I�m going to take a book out of the master Roz playbook and try around an f/7. Just awesome!!!! xx
