| Extremely good focus and composition. definately meets challenge. (Not my favorite subject personally, but am not considering that in my voting because this is an incredibly well done photograph, lol!). Excellent border selection and background. Good job - good luck in the challenge:) |

| Excellent! The details and depth of field are just awesome, not to mention that the toning seems to be perfect for the subject. Well done. |

| Awesome photo, the texture on the bug is so detailed. It kinda looks like it is floating above the plant somehow. And yep, I like it - 10. |

| One of my favourites this week. Good composition and the sepia tone is perfect. So is focus and the cropping. I don´t know how you could have done it better. Meets the challenge very well. Well done and good luck! |

| With your composition and lighting and fantastic depth of field, you make this beetle seem like a heavenly creature! Very nice tones and sharpness, too. Just a great photo. 10 |

| Marvellous shot. Great crisp macro, with DOF just short enough to fade the legs and plant but leave all the antennae and most of the body in focus. The lighting is wonderfully numinous, too, and the toning subtle and just enough to accentuate, instead of taking over. |

| Nice detail on the exoskelleton. Very nice composition with the body of the bug coming down from the corner, his antenae waving in empty space. small DOF allows the viewer to focus attention on the bug. The shaddow in the back isn't terribly distracting, I just keep looking at it wondering how it fits in. I think this might work in color too. But its dramatic in doutone. 8 |

| Very good macro. The beetle is definitely crisp and very clear. The duotone of this really makes for great contrast with the background, but the beetle is not jet black where we can't see any of his detail. Nice choice of subject and very good camerawork. |
