Thanks to all who viewed, voted and commented on my entry in the free study challenge. All of your comments were very constructive and I appreciate you taking the time to comment. This was my first challenge entered. I was happy with the overall score as I had hoped to get at least a 5. I was pleasantly surprised that I received 59 votes over 5 and a little disappointed that I got 10 votes under 4. So it goes. Perhaps a different title such as ' DOF ' might have made a difference. Some people 'got it' and others didn't. I will learn as I go.

You know, I thought this would do a lot better...grasshopper indeed! It's not that undiscernible. Well you at least got your feet wet.

Comment by jhomrighaus:
I think your idea was good here but I think it would have been a lot better with the bug in focus and the kid just a little fuzzy.

Comment by EstimatedEyes:
great expression and eyes. think i would have liked just a tad more focus on the grasshopper, so its more soft than oof. 6 on the first pass, but I may be back for a bump.

This is good - I'm not sure if the eyes are on the creature or the camera.

Comment by rlewis:
slightly more DOF so you could appreciate that there is a mantis there would have helped IMO

I would have liked to see the insect in more focus.

I really like the curiuos look in his eyes, but I would've prefered the pray mantis be in focus instead since its clower to the camera- but thats just me 6
