Oh, I like this tons. The texture of the hibiscus and the hopper interacting with the shadow raises this to a new level entirely. |

Ha! I like this one. The lighting direction and the shadow are great. |

First Impressions: Oh no...not another flower. Oh wait..there's more! :)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Composition: Composition is good on the foreground (flower & hopper). The biggest issue I see with the composition is the background which is very distracting.
Subject: Subject is of a nice flower could be considered typical. However, the placement of a secondary subject (hopper) makes this entry stand out beyond the normal flower entry.
Technical (Colour, focus, and light): Focus is good. Color and lighting is good. However I feel the image could be brighter and might benefit from an increase in hue saturation, particularly in the green.
-------------------------------------------------------------
To improve?: Consider a different background. This may seem crazy, but you could hold a white piece of paper behind the flower.
Summary: An interesting capture. I like the shadow of the flower overlooking the hopper. Background is overly distracting.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Nice picture. My only suggestion would be a closer crop to lessen the background distraction. Not sure how you could do that however co nsidering the horizontal and vertical aspects of the subjects (stem and grasshopper). |

Nice Photo. I think the background is a bit distracting, maybe a tighter crop. |

I like this, the best thing for me about the picture is the cool shadows. Maybe you could have made more of them and also got rid of the yellow house in the background, which I find a bit distracting. I like the colors of the bug and the flower, they compliment each other nicely. |

This picture would look really cool if the background was entirely black. I know you wouldn't of been able to do it with the challenge. |

The background is a bit distracting but this is a lovely image that makes your eye travel around. |
