I don't care for the frame. Since this was an advanced editing challenge you probably should have cloned out the specks on the leaves. Dodging the background a little bit behind the caterpillar's antennae would have given them better definition. Good DoF, and overall a nice image.

Wow - cool closeup. I'm not a bug/insect fan, but I like the crispness and colors.

Great capture. The lighting is a tad harsh (IMHO), but the colors and focus are good. Perhaps if the background were a tad darker, it would make the image pop a little more. Still, a strong entry.

Lighting is a bit harsh and the focus seems a little soft. Point off for on "&" in title.

Nice macro. His yellow and black against the green is a stand out.
