Yellow Bugby npageComment: Pretty. Nice muted tones in the subject, flower and background. Would like to see the butterfly more head-on though. |

Half & Halfby collinsjulComment: Nearly a good shot - not quite in focus and a little overexposed on the abdome and leg. Shooting with a half-bright and half-dark background makes it difficult. Did you (could you) try centre-weighted metering? |

Twelve-spotted Pond Skimmerby quadangleComment: Nice shot - pretty amazing DOF with the wings pretty sharp from edge to edge. What lens did you take this with? The problem with this type of shot is that you don't get too see much detail, becasue the head/body are relatively small. Background is nicely blurred. |

I Am Butterfly Hear Me Roarby OneSweetSinComment: This is nice. I like the way you haven't tried to include the whole butterfly but have concentrated on its face. I like the composition (and the way the wings frame the head) and sharpness/DOF is good. Perhaps just a little more light on the face would have helpd (fill flash?) but this is still a nice shot. Well done. |

Plum goodby drydocComment: Nice shot - shame you couldn't get around to see its face. Focus is where it should be and its good to see the wasp feeding.
I left a piece of plum out in the hope that ti would attract wasps. I got diddly squat. If I'd had a picnic, I'd have been inundated with the things. |

itty bitty spiderby WildpurpleComment: Shame we can't see its face (I have many shots of spiders' backsides, and very few of ther faces - strange that). The spider is nicely on focus with the background nicely blurred. DOD looks good too. |

Chinese Mantisby aliaComment: Cool subject. I think I'd have been tempted to lose the bottom section of the shot (from around the top of the leaf which obscures its abdomen) to concentrate on that amazing face and those forelegs. |

butterflyby shutterflyComment: I like the colourful OOF background, but would like to see the subject occupy more of the shot. The inside of the right wing is blown out. |

green stingerby wetlandComment: Never seen one of these before! Good detail on the eyes and head. Shame the antennae aren't a bit more in focus. Also, the legs would be quite striking but get a bit lost in the flower. |
