Great color. A bit out of focus so some of the detail is lost. Good photo.

Well you did fit the challenge alright. :) Close-ups like this are amazing, you must one awsome macro lens. The pic could be a little bigger, but I'm thinking you probably had to crop this a little get this "close".

EXTREME CLOSE-UP huh? I love the detail, the color -- everything except the angle of the photo. It somehow distracts from the subject.

that\'s an amazing capture - the left antenna blur is a big distraction, however

Wow - how close can you get? Great shot! A sharpen wouldn't have gone wrong on this pic.

Beautiful colors. Love the yellows. Interesting way you were able to compose the shot. It seems very much like a comic book shot. The hairs on the insect seem to intersect toward the middle thus making your eyes focus in on the shiny part of the insect. Blurring effect is interesting.

Amazing what you notice when you get in close. Great stuff, despite a bit of noise/pixellation. [7]
