1 Mar 20 Comment I agree with the cropping suggested by Sol. The intensity of the color of the water seems excessive but it might be just me and the water might be that color. Good image. Mar 17th
1 Mar 20 Comment David, nice lines in this scenic. The clouds might be intensified. Great place to be. Mar 17th
1 Mar 20 Comment Let me add my congratulations on this photo. Impactful, technique excellent and composition is great. Mar 17th
1 Mar 20 Comment Wow! Impact is great. I would lighten up the lower coils of the snake, darken the background (perhaps blurring it more) and get rid of the twigs on the left and right. If something does not add to the photo, it probably detracts. Mar 17th
1 Mar 20 Comment Joey, this is well done. I agree with Sol's comments. The slight blurring of the background is good though. A slight increase in vibrancy could make the colors stand out a bit. Mar 17th
1 Mar 20 Reply Hi Sol,
You know, I felt your feeling that the water was slanted down to the right was correct. Do the trees slanting to the right create this appearance. Do you think it could be corrected by using the warp tool in PS? 		Mar 17th
1 Mar 20 Comment Agree about the comments about sharpness. Unless as a test of your image stabilization, it makes no sense to take this image at 1/13th with an iso of 1600. The subject is fine, the composition is great. Colors are good. Mar 17th

63 Mar 20 Reply Hi Pat, Yes, my Canon 100mm is the newer one. I also have one of the old ones and I can hardly tell the difference in optics. I've never had trouble with the old one as long as I use a high enough iso and fast enough shutter. Of course, to do that, I have to use a flash to get enough light. Nearly all of my insect photos are hand held other than dead insects with Helicon focus.

63 Mar 20 Comment This is very well done technically. The subject has a lot of impact and is sharp with fine lines showing up in the peddles.The contrasting colors are perfect and there is a good appearance of depth. I might lighten up the base of the stamens a bit. Well done. Mar 17th
63 Mar 20 Comment Great patterns and subject with impact. Technique is good and composition is good. Nice image. Mar 17th
63 Mar 20 Comment I like the original better. It is a definable subject with great colors and shows depth that the other does not. Mar 17th
63 Mar 20 Comment Impact is great and sharp focus. Despite the fact that the
spider was upside down, I'd probably rotate it 180 to make it
a more obvious subject. I agree with Richard. I'd like to see more of the spider so that the body was more evident. 		Mar 17th
63 Mar 20 Comment Richard, nice cropping of the original. Using color dodging
and burning in PS could lighten and increase the contrast in the yellow/red and give more depth to the individual peddles of the flower. The water drops make the image impact full. 		Mar 17th
