    Nice sharpness and details! Yeah, I agree the composition is a bit tight.

    Craig, lovely iridescence on this guy, which in turn stands out very well against the lighter BG. Having stated this fellow didnt keep still, Im sure this was the best pose you could have captured at the time.

    Great colors and incredibly sharp....esp. considering the SS. I dont know how much room you have in the orig...but if there is more on top, that would be great. Going by the DOF, does look pretty close to FF.
