This is a cool shot.
Great title, and a far cry from the usual bug shots.
Nice!

need to be closer to the bug, and tone down the red focus too soft

Nice use of color and space. It really creates a mood.

Composition: 7, Fairly nice composition... you avoided a centered subject and the reds impart some energy to the image with the curves and diagonals.

Technical: 6, The bug is nice and sharp. The rest thrown out of focus with shallow DOF (nice).

Appeal: 6, I think the strong reds both add intrigue ... and overwhelm at the same time.

Challenge: 6, Nice close-up. A stronger macro would have focused more closely on the bug.

Overall Calculated Average Score: 6, Nice image. I originally scored it a 5, but in later review decided I had been too quick to judge.

A lovely work, contract in colour and shape a lovely soft texture produced in the petals and a shrpness in the bug

Nice colors, focus and texture. Interesting perspective in a challenge full of simular shots.

This is my favorite flower/bug image ...beautiful lush reds and velvety blacks... I also love the grain, soft lovely lighting...there is something very intimate about this image..I think it's the combination of all the elements working together...personally I don't care for the border...but that's just my personal preference...still very well done.

7 - I like this concept, but would like to have seen more detail/close up of the... grasshopper? Perhaps a different angle. It (critter) seems to have some vivid colors on it, would love to have seen these in more detail.

This seems out of focus to me. The red is a lovely color, but isn't crisp enough for me.

Great shot. Focus on the bug is a little soft though.
