Nice green hues and face detail. The dark areas in the setting don't add to the image.

Hi

A nice enough little image that captures the subject well enough - I can relate to Tom's remark. But then I would have gone closer in, eliminating that lower area completely and concentrated the image about that subject head/body area against that wonderfully dark eye like backdrop - you could have called it the eye of the mantis. Probably just a me thing lol


All the best
Matthew
