    Superb!! If anything maybe a tiny bit more room bottom and right but this is really minor.
    EDIT: just saw the image on the cover and the composition is exactly what I had in mind...

    Harshad, Excellent and congratulations! Ofer makes a good point regarding the bottom but yes that is minor. Very nice sharpness and colors. Love the bug.

    Harshad Bhai, As I said on some other forum, you made some exceptional images of this bird. I too would love to see a bit space on the right and bottom.

    I like your repost with more room on the right but I feel a bit more room at the bottom and less at the top could be nice. Here is a repost with this idea. WDYT ?

    Harshad, This is outstanding! The brilliant colors, the feather details, the pose, the bkgd, and that fly...come together perfectly. Well done and super congrats on the magazine cover.
