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.
