Ilike the flower,but not the bug.
03/17/2009 07:28:14 AM
Fit for a bug, snug as a rug. Nice close up.

Very interesting shot. Maybe some more contrast would help it "Pop", but it's very fascinating.

Not voting yet.

very good macro...nice bright colors
03/16/2009 11:02:53 AM
Good shot but needs a bigger bug or closer shot to have more impact.
03/16/2009 09:11:59 AM
Good detail. I like how pale the bug is in contrast to the flower.
03/16/2009 07:32:38 AM
Nice composition and I dig the yellow. The water drops are a good textural touch, I wonder if they are natural or if you added them?
03/15/2009 05:22:19 PM
Great rule of thirds nice colours
03/15/2009 01:39:35 PM
like the colors.
03/15/2009 08:03:22 AM
Nice perspecive, a bit dark, could be a bit brighter.
03/15/2009 02:38:04 AM

Very cute little bug. The water adds a extra dimension to the picture.Still it is missing something to make it pop a bit. Maybe a little extra post processing could liven it up a bit
03/14/2009 08:52:06 PM
Nice colored shapes in the flower. Great bug!
03/14/2009 01:44:44 PM
Very well composed.
03/14/2009 11:59:31 AM
Nice macro, the bug adds an interesting touch
03/14/2009 11:44:24 AM
nice focus
03/14/2009 10:59:16 AM
seems just a little soft on the focus,,, jmo
03/14/2009 09:14:18 AM
Image feels lacking in the sharpness department.
03/13/2009 09:17:51 PM
That's an odd looking flower. I guess if I was a floral fan, I might know what it was.
03/13/2009 05:00:21 PM
neat flower, although the picture could be sharper.
03/13/2009 04:36:02 PM
focus on the bug needs to be crisper.
03/13/2009 02:10:41 PM
Pretty. Nicely detailed. well composed. Hard not to like this.
03/13/2009 09:41:25 AM
This is ok.. I think it use more contrast
03/13/2009 08:41:13 AM
Not sure I understand the title.. And, mostly because of the brown bug, this really just doesn't do it for me. Sorry. I do like the water droplets on the flower petals though.
03/13/2009 06:11:46 AM
Nice macro, good composition.
03/13/2009 04:22:13 AM
great title, nice macro, you've got a lot of interesting detail going on
03/13/2009 02:34:55 AM
Interesting capture. Could be a little sharper.
03/12/2009 04:16:54 PM
Nice detail and colors. Very natural looking.
03/12/2009 04:06:44 PM
I like the drops on the petals.
03/12/2009 07:13:26 AM
Caught in the act!
03/12/2009 02:16:35 AM
nice macro but a bit unsarp
03/12/2009 01:43:41 AM
could be a bit sharper, light is a bit flat
03/12/2009 12:10:39 AM
looks busy but nice colors
03/11/2009 08:36:19 PM
i wouldve preferred a closer crop to better showcase the beetle but i like the way he stands out on the flower
03/11/2009 06:34:34 PM
Nice macro. Don't you wish it was easier to get the bugs to pose?
03/11/2009 05:02:28 PM
Great macro. Nice colors.
03/11/2009 03:42:37 PM
I'd say. That bug looks like it is in its own personal paradise.
03/11/2009 12:53:19 PM
