Hi all,

Thanks for all the comments. This is my first submission and I am pleased to see it did not come last :p. I know it is hard to understand why it is failure, but to get things clear, I found this moth dead in my garden, so I toom the photos just for creativity. When I saw they had Sucess and Failure for voting, I thought yes, the moth was dead so it could be classified as Failure. The comment is also symbolic since these guys have a night life, finding them in the day is hard so it had to be dead. Funny thing is, I used the 350D's stock lens which is no Macro hehe but it came out awesome. I just got a Sigma 28-200 Macro lens today, hope to get more shots like these in the future! Thanks for all you comments! Tomas.

Nice shot, the amount of detail is awesome but I donĀ“t really get how this relates to the theme, I gave you the benefit of the doubt though.

Nice macro.

Good macro.

Sorry, but I failed to see where this is a failure. On the other hand, I really do like the photo.

I like the picture, I'm just not entirely sure what it has to do with "failure."
05/26/2006 04:18:28 PM
Nice picture, but why is this failure???
05/26/2006 02:00:34 PM
An incredible shot, but I keep looking and looking, keep thinking from other angles, and I don't see the failure part.

Amazing detail and vibrant colors.

Excellent macro shot, but I don't find the failure. The detail here is superb, the depth of field is great, but the overall composition is a little bit too centered.
05/24/2006 09:36:48 PM
very nice close up.
05/24/2006 07:07:13 PM
This is a superb macro but I don't know what it has to do with the challenge and I don't know what the title has to do with the photo.
05/24/2006 06:22:38 PM
How will you know if it has failed until the end of voting...7

I don't fully get what you are trying to do here in terms of the challenge.

Technically: Very nice photo. Great Macro shot. The photo is extremely sharp.
05/24/2006 02:29:40 PM
Sharp macro, but I'm not sure where the failure comes in? :)

Amazing - love your spot on focus this close and great depth - so much detail is in focus. In a perfect world I would have liked the other wing to have filled the lower left of the shot for symmetry. Good job.

excellent macro
05/24/2006 07:28:56 AM
wonderful moth, but not sure were the failure is.
05/24/2006 07:02:21 AM
Beautiful photo, but I can't see the connection with failure.
05/24/2006 03:31:47 AM
The detail and color in this photo is awesome. :)
05/24/2006 01:38:45 AM
Cool macro, not real sure why it's a failure though.
