Grasshoppers and Crickets

This is such a glorious image. I really like the colours and tones along with the composition. Having the creature set to the side is lovely. This image is also beautifully sharp. A very warming image, so very well done.

This contest saw many fantastic images but what made yours stand out most was the uniqueness and technical brilliance. This image is 100% pin sharp, well composed and most crucially very well timed. For me, to find a moment happening like this is amazing in itself, but you took is so much further and have produced an amazing image. Even the flower they're on blends so beautifully. A very worthy winner, so congratulations.

This is not only funny but a really unusual image as well. It is pin sharp, well composed and your colours and tones are great too. For me the bright green vegetation at the front is a little distracting and could do with being toned down a little. However it is still a really great and funny take on the contest. Well done.

I really love the tones and contrast of your image. The yellow/gold colour tone is beautiful. The image blends superbly well with itself throughout. The vibrant green of the creature is great too. I like how you can only see part of it coming out from behind the flower as it adds a more natural feel to the image for me. A lovely image. Well done.

This grasshopper really makes an impact. Its colours are amazing. The beautiful background doesn't detract from the grasshopper in any way and is very well toned. I like the positioning of the pin sharp grasshopper as well. A great image. Well done.

Considering the challenge of such a small size of your subject you have captured it amazingly well. I love the composition of your image and feel you have made all the right decisions to have the cricket at the bottom as you get a true sense of its size. The image is also pin sharp and your colours and tones are lovely. A really nice image, well done.
