		| | The bug is very unfocused and the points of light on it's back are distracting, I think you just came in a wee bit too close this time without focusing. |

		| | I wish we could see more detail of the bee... and that it had more focus on it instead of the plant. |

		| | The insect is not sharp enough for such a prominent position. |

		| | Hello,  I have made it a point for this challenge to comment on every photo that I scored under a 4. 
 I socred this photo a 2 for the follwoing reasons:
 
 1. Your connection to the challenge is tentative, the main color of this shot is green, with black and then a magenta/pink with a slim leaning into lavender in the flowers.  With the challenge called "Purple", you would need the photo to have much more of a connection to that main color for me.
 
 2. You've missed focus on your main subject, leaving it out of focus in a very glaring way, especially since it comes across as the main focal point to the viewer.
 
 Technically, and challenge wise, this isn't a very strong entry for my eyes.

		| | Too out of focus. Badly lit and badly composed. Sorry. |

		| | Next time use the full 150k image size allowance, the JPEG compression artifacts in this really detract. |
