Challenge: Free Study 2010-06 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-400D Rebel XTi
Lens: Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS
Location: Davis CA
Date: Jun 4, 2010
Date Uploaded: Jun 9, 2010

 I am submitting the June free study on the 9th of the month already, and took this image on the 4th.
The sad thing is that I am going to be taking brilliant photos this month still, but I will not be able to upload any. I am going to Costa Rica for a month, returning July 25th, so I have to submit something before I leave.

Still, I think this is a pretty great shot. WAY better than any of my previous reversed lens attempts. I don't have a reversed lens gadget, so I literally just hold the lens the wrong way to my camera and hope for the best.
I won't even be here to see how well this does. Hopefully it will do ok. I think this shot would have done awesome in the Bokeh challenge.

Good attempt. Some things I would suggest for making this better: sharper focus on the bug, maybe less green saturation (seems overpower), and saving so you don't have bands of colors in the background.
