the background is too dull..if you intentionally made it b/w, I don't think it works here.. also you could have cropped it tighter |

Beautiful colors and texture. Interesting perspective in a sea of simular shots. |

Wonderful moth. IMO, the only problem I see is too much open space to right. I think rule of thirds isn't needed in this one. |

8 - Very nice. Simplicity. Good capture and 'character'. For me, closer would have been better, else a tighter crop. Nice color. |

The images that always suffer due to lack of comments are the ones that are right in the middle ground. Everyone comments on the awesome shots. Some comment on the bad shots. But the middle ones, very few people say anything. So here I am to explain why I voted a 5:
This image is actually pretty good. I like the sharpness in the bug. Lack of sharpness is usually my first criteria for voting a macro down (below 5). So what does this lack...? I think it's the flat on angle of the picture. If you got in front of the bug it would add some 3D visual aspects to it. Instead, the only clue to 3D is that the bug is sharp (again, this is good), but the flower on which it stands is blurry. A more angled shot would snag some of the flower and bring it into focus, while allowing the bug to blur just a bit from front to back.
So it's neither a bad shot, nor one that stands out from the crowd... and that's why I ended up giving it a 5. Hope this helps. |
