Sorry but the tonemapping doesn't suit my fancy.

It looks so deserted. What time of day? (I know this street)

Too processed for my liking but I do like the detail in the trees

Neat! This is similar to what I envisioned doing, had I been able to enter this challenge. Of course, I'm years away from approaching this quality of work, so I'm glad someone with your talent did it! :) 10, and I hope you snag a ribbon!

THis would have been good, with the receding lines and all working for it, but it looks overprocessed. It no longer looks like a photograph. The photo lost it's soul.
I would have scored it higher if not for that.

Great colours but the shot looks a little soft to me.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Initial impression: Had Roz not entered that Robberfly shot, I would peg this as one of hers. Gave you a 6 during voting.

Technical: Great capture at 1/60th, and with a fairly big lens to boot. Very well done, especially as insects can be quite skittish! Interesting texture on the leaf, too, and nice bit of bug bokeh. Say that 4 times fast :-)

Artistic: Nice ambient light, OK comp, lots of room for bug to fly into. Extra kudos for not only shooting handheld but also doing minimal (if any) pp. Hats off to you!

Overall: If this is how a handheld shot of a bug in flight of yours looks, then Roz may have to look to her laurels :-) Great work, keep it up!

Feel free to pm me with any questions,

Susan
