NIce shot, but could've done with being a bit sharper ... I guess this was cropped a fair bit. Also perhaps the wings could've fitted inside the shot. Lovely subject.

Nice composition, but the lighting is a bit harsh and the focus is a lil too soft for my tastes. Sorry!

far too blurry and overexposed. Nice insect though...

A little sharper would have made this a top shot

Shame, but this is too blurred. This kind of shot has to be really crisp or you've lost most of the interest in the subject.

Many people like insect shots, I agree, but this challenge was looking for a different take on IN THE GARDEN I think. Before I began voting I decided that any bug pics would be a 3, but I really like this shot so you get a 4

This would have been a great shot if it was clear...

2 things bother me about this shot. 1. the focus is not sharp enough on the places that really matter. 2. It's static. I'd like to have seen some perspective on the location. 4
