    Hi Jonathan, love those eyes! and nice job in capturing them so sharply. Great details on the face and I like the bug being right on the edge of the leaf. The diagonal flow of the image works for me too. May want to tone down the URC some. Nice work!

    Hi Jonathan. I love those multicolored eyes and you nailed the focus! Also, good lighting, comp, and background. I would agree about tweaking the URC. Very nice work!

    Hey Jon, that Damsel looks really cool....kicking back, chilling on the leaf! The light on the face is outstanding!
    Definitely tone down the URC. I was also thinking that the face needs to be brightened up slightly but that may just be in comparison the the URC. Once you tone down that corner, lightening up the face may not be necessary.
