The 6 people who gave you a 1, 2, and 3 should be hung.
Great shot. |

This has been in my favourites for ages and I keep coming back to it. It's quite an incredible snapshot of a moment in insect life, beautifully focused and so crisp. Their bodies look so tangible - I can almost feel their texture. Brilliant. |

I can't see why this woul dhave gotten anything below a 5. Thought he "subject" may not be perfect for some people, it is quite obvious that some forget all aspects of photograpy, not just the subject but the technical aspects. I think that you did an awesome job on this photo. Shelia |

Congrats. I knew this one would come up in the top 3. Crazy about insect macro's, I'd be proud to have taken a shot like this. |

how the heck did you get this shot? it's great. |

I really like how the two fighting are the only two in perfect focus. Great shot. |

I would have cropped the left side great capture |

Wow! Excellent composition and colours! What a scene!! |
|
|
11/15/2002 11:26:00 PM |
Perfect! I wanted to take a photo of wasps as well, but was to scared to get that close to them... I like to composition and focus. |

11/15/2002 05:28:00 PM |
I really wish that bug on the foreground (left) wasn't there....it's ruining the entire shot...7 zadore |

Yeah, baby. Great capture. Focus is a bit off, but what the heck I'll give you a 10. Jacko |

Too bad you couldn't have isolated just the two fighting ants
|
|
|
11/13/2002 06:09:00 PM |
WOW; what a lucky shot! Or is it a planned setup? I'm highly interested in the story behind this shot and I'm waiting for your photo details... Good luck, nds |

amazing shot. Foreground just a little distracting. 9 |

Title suits the picture perfectly. IMO, it also helps tell the story. |
|
|
11/13/2002 03:17:00 PM |
"Bugs Life" revisited! The two fighting ants are good, but the REALLY out of focus ant in front is very distracting. |

all in all this is probably my favorite photo this week. i felt pretty sure a good insect macro would work well, I just couldn't get one... yours, though, is excellent-- (10) ~mcmurma |

|
11/12/2002 09:09:00 PM |
Tell me honestly these are real and you didn't set this up and I'll give you a sure 10. Right now it is a 6 . The one by itself is a lot out of focus. PTL |
|
|
11/12/2002 08:42:00 PM |
Wow. A super insect capture! |
|
|
11/12/2002 08:29:00 PM |
Well, now I know my little photo hasn't got a chance not with Gladiator here. Super. |

that is an amazing shot, im blown away-the detail is exquisite-anz-9 |

Either you have a REALLY long lens, or you are crazy. How many times did you get stung? Incredibly scary shot.9 boyte1 |

Good dof in the main characters! Great shot. |

right place at the right time |
|
|
11/11/2002 10:04:00 PM |
this would have been a 10 with more depth of field. |
|
|
11/11/2002 09:58:00 PM |
Excellent shot. I love the color and composition. I wish the fellow on the left had just a wee bit more focus though. Really good idea, one of my favs this week. DPz |

Cool photo! Too bad the little guy to the left wasn't a bit further away so he would be more in focus. (Then again, I wouldn't be the one volunteering to herd these fellas around!) |

Great color and action. They remind me of the Geonosians in Episode II |

11/11/2002 07:51:00 PM |
This is amazing! I would be interested to know what type of lens you used. This is my first 10 so far and I've been thru 141. |

damn, youve got a good camera. you captured great colors. 10 |

11/11/2002 03:10:00 PM |
Cool photo. The only part that bothers me is the blurred hornet to the left. He's a little distracting, but I think that photo is a great one. |
|
|
11/11/2002 02:32:00 PM |
This shot is remarkable! I give it a 9, and it would have been a 10 if the foreground, especially the front left ant, had been more in focus. Bitz |
|
|
11/11/2002 02:24:00 PM |
Great capture. For some reason it reminds me of Gladiators. I like the foreground being out of focus, it really forces the eyes to the subject. If I had any "complaints" it might be that it was cropped too closely at the top (for me anyway). Otherwise, awesome. karmat |

This is so good, what a moment caught. Nice detail and love the way the motion is conveyed. |

Perfect DOF. Nice action shot! Well done. |

WOW! Very dramatic! Great focus and colors! Where was this taken? kosmik 9 |

Yes, this is great. I love it. Interesting, good lightning, perfect focus - what else can you want? High score from me. /carsten |

Incredible capture!! I don't know how much res. you had to work with to crop this just so the two opponents were shown. The foreground is pretty out of focus, which is a major bummer but the bugs are great. If a few minor details could've been worked out, this would be a sure 10. Nice job anyway - Inspzil |
|
|
11/11/2002 10:01:00 AM |
You must be pretty brave ! The only real distraction for me is the wasp on the left being so out of focus. This is still a good close up:) |

Excelent natural history image |

Nice choice of subject. Too bad half your picture is out of focus! |

Dare I even ask how long you waited for a shot like this to come along? |
