I said it before and I'll say it again, Roz is to bugs as Irene is to waterdrops.
Everyone say hello to a new heavyweight. I can say I knew you when! Good job babe!
p.s. you know you've arrived when people start guessing who the photographer is by the shot during voring!

Had a second look at this one and increased your score. In my opinion you have achieved a nice subtle bokeh with a very interesting, and detailed foreground. Great Job. |

The right bottom is kind of OOF and dark, like some other parts of the cricket. I like the Bokeh but it could be more soft. I really like the colors (mostly the red eye) and the water drops too! |
|
Photographer found comment helpful. |
|
12/18/2008 04:01:17 PM |
To me this is all about the forground. Pin sharp and well exposed/composed.
The bokeh is very gentle and mirrors the balls of water on the cricket. I'm sure this will do very well - 9. |
