Hi Nikos,
A very unique photo of the small spider. Proper flash usage to provide enough lights without washing the colors out, and I like the composition also (eventhough a bit more space at left and a bit less at right might be useful, I think) and the warm color tones. Nice depth of field as well. Beautiful shot overall, congratulations!
Kind regards from Ireland, László

Hi Luciano,
We should say this is love at first sight. :-) Congratulations for this superb shot. Great playing with lights / shadows, proper exposure, beautiful sharpness. The composition, which sells an image, can't be any better with antennae on both sides in front of blurry, green background (what I have no problems with). Excellent image, bravo!
Kind regards from Ireland, László

Hi Ian,
I agree with Luciano, this is an artistic and attractive shot showing the raindrops on a very colorful surface. However, if you adjust the focus to the closest raindrop and you close the aperture to, let's say, f/8 or higher to gain more depth of field, the image would even be more spectacular. Only a personal opinion, obviously.
Kind regards from Ireland, László

Hi Silvio,
Gorgeous photo. Although with such busy background I wished to see much more blurry background (f/2.8), especially because the butterfly themselves didn't need high depth of field, the off-centered composition helped. Great sharpness and light management as well. Good photo, nice details on the wings. Congratulations!
Kind regards from Ireland, László

Hi Sri,
This species is also common in Eurasia, but I don't remember if I've ever seen such a spectacular photo of them. The early morning lights are fantastic, such as the simple, yet pleasant composition. Great exposure as well, and a powerful image overall. Congratulations!
Kind regards from Ireland, László

Unique point of view that gives a fine impression of the wings but hides the head.
A well composed shot.

Brilliant image with super eye contact, Satirtha.
The brown ground BG goes well with the colour of the subject.

Superb point of view, Satirtha.
The plumage of the bird is captured in great detail and that catch-light in the eye makes my day.
Thanks.

Wonderful picture of a Jumping Spider from dorsal perspective with fill flash, Nikos. The details and bright colours on its back are well captured, even though the eyes of a Jumping Spider are a preferred objective.
