Greetings from the Critique Club.
Vibrant colors that work well together. Interesting textures that make the photo fun to explore. The large bug in front is a clear focal point that the eye returns to again and again as it explores the contrasting elements around it. A very nice photo.
I do wish that large bug was in focus. A bit larger depth of field would have improved this; depending on wind, perhaps f/8 at 1/100 second.
The point of view works well, but it's a bit unbalanced and the bug at back right is cut off. Pointing the camera a bit to the right would improve the composition. It's centered, but that's fine (and common) for macros. The vertical orientation was the right choice here.
Another minor complaint is the glare reflecting off of some of the bugs. But overall a great photo, especially considering the minimal editing rules. |

| WOW! This absolutely gorgeous! I love the colors. The only thing I could "whine" about is that the background could have been (slightly) more out of focus..... But again, I love the colors of the bugs! |
