Just gorgeous !!!! Clean simple and elegant !!! I like how you were able to make the image in the stretch position and with such complementing setting !!! Love it !!!

Hey Kaushik, a really cool comp. excellent details, It seems to have to much negative space on the left side, and I think the image needs to be more in center. The top bud is clipped.

Hi Kaushik,
Agree with mike on some possible improvements.........but the lighting and BG are superb!

[Robert O'Toole]

The lighting is super and the BG as good as it gets. Interesting foliage and subject. Looks like the catapilliar is in a bad way, hes not looking too good health wise. He is not feeding.. maybe a parasite has something to do with it, anyway looks like he is about to drop.

Agree with clip comments.

What a gem of a shot, if possible I would include a little more at the top and right and eliminate a little of the left. Having said that I don't know if I would have noticed at the time! Great shot, well done!
