Was the noise intentional? not too bad but was curious. He's adorable, nice detail

interesting idea but doesn't really jump out at me. See if you can adjust some curves and help that sky and dull colors some. Good luck

I think you're on to something here. Black and white is very nice here. I like the blown out background since it helps keep your focus on the grasshopper. you've got great detail and his tone is on spot. I'm not sure about the little frame, part of me wants to hate it but I don't know why, it is suttle and clean so I'm not sure what my problem is. I think you're off to a good start.

Did you use that cameras full 10x zoom? Couldn't believe they put that in the small point and shoots but not the later models like my 5050z :(

WOW. This is beautiful. Love the sky and clouds and am surprised at how nice it looks in b/w. Really great image, wish I could vote higher than 10.

I like the black and white choice here. The flowers are nice and sharply focused.

Good luck

I like this image, the direction she is looking is perfect and I like the negative space BUT her face doesn't seem as sharp as it should be. I think it had a lot of potential if it weren't for that.

Good luck

The foreground petels are much softer and more blurred than the ones behind the bee, (probably because you had to shoot so fast to catch this little guy) which hurts the image some. I like the colors and placement of the flower and bee in the image and the white borders adds a little extra touch to it.

Good luck
