Hello Carlo
i'm italian I know you from a forum perhaps Natura e foto. I don't practise macro so deep, but semi macro,so I haven't too experience in this. I can say it seems to be a good capture, sharp, well positioned.
But please, I wrote previuosly a moderator the technical data, it helps to understand the technical problems, and when it was shot. I write in english because seems a form of courtesy for the others, of course.
Nice image. I like the tight crop. A bit soft in the midsection, you may want to try another sharpness pass in it............Otherwise, nice BG and diagonal comp on the fly.
thanks everyone for comments :)
I often forget shooting data. :o
you're right valerio ciao
here the data
D300 70/180 macro nikon + extension tube 20mm kenko

Hi Carlo. Thanks for adding the shooting specs. Lovely even light, a great background, and very nice sharpness and detail within your DOF. I wonder if the image would be even stronger if you had used f/11 or f/16 to get a little more DOF. :) Overall, this is well done.
Stunning image, Carlo! I think that back wing could use a slight adjustment around the edge. There's a bit of a green cast right where it meets the BG that I bet you could clone out and that would draw less attention to the fact that it's the only part of the image that's at all OOF.
