Greg!! This is FABULOUS! When I first saw this in the challenge, I thought it must be Roz' You KNOW what a compliment that is. In fact, "Roz,look out. .. your other half is hot on your heels" :) And I'm sure she is delighted and proud of your work.
I love the fact that it is one of the best macros I've seen, but it is in the context of a stunning photograph. One you'd hang on your wall. Congratulations on a personal best score, and an AMAZING photograph to add to your portfolio! |

| Beautiful warm background. I like the shallow DOF but my only nitpick is that the body of the butterfly looks slightly oversharpened. Great shot overall. |

He woke from the sleep of all his kind, and crawled out onto the nearest platform. The sun shone, and the dew had already fled, so it was a good beginning for him. The right beginning. He spread his sodden wings and let the shine of the sun do its work, a small near unnoticeable mist of steam rose from them as they dried. He raised his head and closed his eyes and let the warmth beat upon him, basking in the new that was his transformation. Reveling in the wonder that was this day.
Then, moments later, a twitch of the wings to test their readiness, and with a slight jump of the blade of grass he was away. Brushing the air with wings that shouldn't be able to move it, the tiniest of breezes pushed off with those wonderous things. The slightest of shock waves felt by nothing but the dust in the air around him.
Days later, in the aftermath of the Tsunami, he settled on a lone flower among the debris, his life nearing the end of its time, never knowing the destruction his birth and life had wrought, in the ever continuing cycle of all things. |

| Wonderful picture. Centered comp works well. Colors and detail are good. DOF a bit shallower than I would have preferred. |

| Awesome. I love the background color and how it complements the moth. I think I might like it better with a larger depth of field, though - i.e., if the front wing, at least, was also in focus. |

| I love the lighting in this. It clearly is backlit but the body of the moth just glows. Lovely |
