This Place Bugs Me.....

[Richard Waas]

Well we're off to Arizona and New Mexico. Stopping in New Orleans (Just in time for Hurricane Ida) we went to the new Audubon Insectarium and photographed this image handheld with my Canon 5D Mk II. The flash was impossible to use due to glare on cases. ISO 6400, f/13.0, 1/500 sec, EF24-105mm f/4.0L IS USM, 35mm, Evaluative Metering, Auto Exposure, Auto WB, No Flash.

Hi Richard - nice collection of bugs you have there - like the composition - personally I would clone out the cut off bugs around the outsides of the frame - Just my personal taste, think it would make it stronger.
Might als adjust the levels on the bg to give it a tad more high key look.

I like!!!

I like the fluid lines of motion and the color pattern Mr. Waas. Agree with Mr. Peters on cloning out the bugs that are cut off around the edges...thanks for sharing...keep us posted on your progress...have a blast of a time and give my regards to the family...:):cool:

I didn't have time earlier to work on the image, but agree with Lance... Here is the cloned/high key version

[Gus Cobos]

Now your cooking Mr. Waas...love it...:D:cool:
