  #230 High Angle Shot 		Entry 6 of 20
   
 
Green insect on daisy       ©2020 Thivi
Panasonic DMC-G80       6th place, 118 points
1/400s, f5.6, ISO 200, 60mm, Aperture Priority, Pattern, no flash
 
Post-Processing: mid tones +10%
fine contrast +20%
vibrance +20%
no crop		       Extra Info: I hesitated for a long time between this photo (the original) and its variant cropped on the middle of the flower and the insect. Details are more visible on the crop but I think the non-cropped version gives more the impression of a high angle of view...

Jun 8, 2020		     To crop or not to crop? I can understand your dilemma. Still, it's lovely either way. What a stunning little insect! Well up in faves.

Jun 7, 2020		     Beautifully taken - the detail in great - Not being much of a fan of bugs, I find this crop quite beautiful, specially with the blurred background to make the subject stand out.

Jun 7, 2020		     Excellent shot. The irridencent green bug is really interesting. I like the soft light too. I think either crop is legitimate, but I like this one. I might have simple cropped this to a 1:1 ratio because that would work well with the circular shape of the flower and add even more symmetry to the image.

Jun 7, 2020		     Let's see the cropped in outtakes. Nice detail. High interest. Technically excellent. My no. 3

Jun 7, 2020		     I like that you can see other daisies giving a sense of depth.
Lovely bright metallic-looking shine on the bug

Jun 6, 2020		     Interesting bug, great colors and very well shot. I think that for the circumstances, you made the right choice of the two crops, but I'd consider square as well.
