Thank you Shan. It amazes me how such a delicate insect can survive amongst all those thorns

Hi @Bill Edwards

Color, sharpness, it's great, what bothers me a bit, is that the head of the insect is on the left and is in the context of the photo, the insect would have been better located on the right . But it's still a good shot

Thanks for the feedback @Christophe Berche I think you are correct

Hi @Bill Edwards

Your framing is more coherent, I posted a tutorial on framing

It's just the mistakes to avoid, that's what I try to do every time I take a photo

Thank you for your feedback @Christophe Berche. Composition and framing have their conventions but are after all just guidlines. It is, is it not down to personal taste and artistic interpretation?
