Hi Melissa:

Greeting from the Critique Club -- hello to a fellow member -- the pressure's on me to offer as good a critique as you do :)

It seems by the few comments that you've fallen into the "average score" category here. You meet the challenge and there is a good technical quality to your shot.

What strikes me first about your shot is that each element has a different color and there is no unifying element or main element to pull the composition together - it's as if each (the chocolate, strawberry, background, wings, bug body, and leaves) all take the same weight in the shot and in a way compete for my attention.

Compositionally, you have only one two items but they are bundled so tightly together that the composition doesn't allow me to explore the frame.

If you have any questions or comments, please pm me. I've enjoyed looking at your photographs and wish you lots of good shooting!

Regards,
Theresa

chocolate a bit too think, would like to have seen the texture of the strawberry in the chocolate. good lighting. Crop and composition are not working for me. Maybe a diffrent angle. Good work.

This is cool, but the background is too similar in color to the butterfly's wings, so there isn't a good separation of the foreground and background.
