Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that meets contributes to the open challenge well

Congratulations for your deserved high score and HM for this excellent image. It’s all in the detail, truly amazing, they’re insects that we either love or loath but when you are able to see them like this difficult not to be impressed with the way they fit in to the bigger natural picture. Technically its very well executed, the focus is exactly where it should be and I like the slightly off-centre composition. All in all a great image Roger, well done

Little soft focus on the nose. I do a lot of macro so I know how hard this is to get the eyes and nose is focus. Still a great shot! 8

A Zillion you.

Greetings from the Critique Club! First off, Roger, congrats on the HM, this is a very good macro. The beetle's antennae make a great way to lead the eye into the pic and to that funny little face it has. The ambient lighting is perfect and the comp dead simple but very effective. Even the colours work perfectly with the green of the leaf being complementary to the orange eye area. Great find, and well deserving of the high score *and HM in a FS no less. Keep up the great work, and look forward to seeing more of your work in the future.

Susan

A Zillion you.
