only one thing and its a small thing….. would of included a bit more at the bottom of the shot…. but then again I would have included that but my shot wouldn’t have been as good..!!! well done..

same here…first thing I saw was the border and the sig …… really takes away from the photos…… Signature and border need to be much more subtle… would like to see them posted again without the borders….. or with something more simple..

Thanks for the info Gareth….good to know what it actually is…. I think I will have to invest in a proper macro lens…..

:oops: yes I dodged it…. I will have to play around with it and see what I can do to keep the contrast… I’m also going to print them and see how they come out…. haven’t printed much before of what I have taken and never really thought about the difference between viewing online and printing. Sure I will see how they turn out. Might be back with some questions about preping for print….. thanks..

Thanks for all your feedback….

I’ve gone a bit lighter with the face in the image below…too light…or can anyone tell the difference?? I’m working on a crappy laptop screen so its hard to see really……

Mark…. does your signature go to last months comp??

Thanks for the feedback……

summerdreamn… I’m a bit restricted by the reflections as its only what is actually in the surounding area…and here there isn’t a lot as its in a forest…. but I now what you mean…maybe I need to bring some props…

Rob…thanks for the feedback……. last shot looks better smaller for some reason..not a great shot I know but imagine if every shot you posted got good reviews..!!! There is a such a high standard of macro droplet shots out there..hard to better those…. the bar has been set….. guess I need to keep trying…….

I think the shot itself is much improved over the original…. you just need to find something more natural to put at the sides to go with the trees…. The ‘curtains’ are a bit out of place but its definitly getting better…….. much better contrast and colour than your original…

Maybe try a tight crop on the last shot…… some good action going on there..
