I like the comp with the diagonal lines along with nice mating behavior but the image looked a little soft, heres a sharpen version using the smart sharpen filter in CS3 set to amount 60 and radius 1

Love the colors and textures of the leaf or petal. Really wish most of all the tip wasnt clipped and the plane of focus was a little higher closer to the bodies of the moths. Cool interaction on a great perch.

Hey adcolon, as Robert points out great colors and textures and agree on the clipped tip.

Hi adcolon - nice capture of these two moths on an attractive leaf. I just wish for a little detail in the BG.

Interesting find Adcolon on a nice perch. Don's repost definitely is a beter presentation. Did you make an image from the side as well, IMO that cwould be a more interesting angle.
