Well, Don, that's as cute a crab as I've ever seen! Very nice low angle and I love the shadow beneath him and the piece of shell to the left. The entire image works well together and everything is crystal sharp. I love it!

:) look at that raised left eye !!! He's frowning at u !
You've got just right DOF to keep the crab sharp. Nice image Don.

[Allen Sparks]

Wonderful shot. As others have mentioned, you have just the right DOF. great clarity too. Love it!

[Dave Mills]

Hi Don,Nicely lit with good detail. Another idea would be to crop some of the top and create a pano look.

[Jonathan Ashton]

Hey Don,
Angle is outstanding. Light.....judging the shadow not wow quality but I do feel the shadow adds a ton.....so handled very well too! Maybe a hair over sharpened.....but easy fix and I could go with either the OP or the pano crop......both work for me. Very well composed and great job handling the light!

Roman, thks, i'm looking forward to more fun in the macro world.. however a lot to remmebr and keep front and center!
