Hello from the Critique Club,

First, let me welcome you to DPC and congratulate you on entering your first challenge. As for your image and how it relates to this challenge, the thing that kept your score below a 5 is that the angle you shot this image at is pretty much straight on and doesn't have a very unique perspective to it. If you had shot from a lower angle and maybe included a bit more of the bicycle in the image, you might have scored in the high 5's and maybe even a six. What also hurt your score a little bit is that the insect doesn't look sharply focused. I suspect that you didn't sharpen the image after you reduced the size to 640 pixels. Most people at DPC use Unsharp Mask to sharpen the image after downsizing.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.

Tim
