Hola Ricardo!
Pero de donde sacaste ese insecto verde-metalico-fosforecente? Absolutamente increible el especimen, y claro, muy favorecido por la iluminacion que empleaste.
Y que decir del amarillo? Ni siquiera en espanol consigo las palabaras para describir el impactante contraste.
Nuevamente, -para mi gusto- preferiria poder apreciar en su totalidad esos pixeles que utilizaste para formar el marco, la foto no necesita de mas nada para ser admirada!.
Felicitaciones,
JM

Hi Ricardo
Fabulous close up shot of this great looking insect, superb pose, composition and POV, the details are so sharp and I like the framing, what I really like is the wonderful colours, the fanatstic metalic green of the insect complimented by the warm gold, yellow and orange tones od the flower.

Hola Ricardo.
Acabo de sentarme 5 minutos a elejir una fotito para mañana antes de irme a dormir y me encuentro esta belleza. Me gusta más que la anterior foto, más que nada por la composición, ya que parece estar posando para ti. A veces con estas fotos, uno se pregunta si realmente merece la pena la reflex... amigo mio, si le metes un Raynox de esos (o similar) a tu camara te metes dentro del bicho!
Aunque tuve que pensarmelo dos veces para atreverme, al final me decidi con un miniworshop, más que para arreglar nada, para adaptarla a mi gusto, aunque ya se que difiere del tuyo ligeramente. Un abrazo!

Hola Ricardo,
De seguro la mejor foto de esta especie que vi, y de la forma que me hubiera gustado tomarla y nunca pude por la inquietud de estos bichitos. También veo que te diste cuenta que en las flores grandes se emboban más y es fgacil retratarlas.
La composición y los colores son sencillamente espectaculares, con una excelente profundidad focal. Felicitaciones!

Details and light are amazing.
The POV really gives the feeling that the insect is totally enveloped in this yellow world. Great color contrast with the green body.

Hi Ricardo
Another immaculate and impeccable posting from your amazing macro lens.
What a bummer to join such a long list of critiquers to give accolades to this beautiful posting, but one needs to do what one needs to do especially if you just have to do it for the sake of beauty. There is nothing else to add what has not already been said so I am really here just to say I agree and please except my humble smiley as small token of appreciation and reward for such an exceptional piece of work.
Extremely well done and TFS.

Hello Ricardo,
now this point of view from the side is even more powerful than the one you have shown before in another superb image of this very beautiful, incredibly colourful metallic bee.
Remarkably good details and depth of field for the very small size of the object, well managed strong contrasts. And the strong light is very activating, cheerful, and inspiring. An excellent image that sends lots of energy.
Thank you. My best regards,

Oi Ricardo!!
Volta e meia passo por aqui para admirar esta foto!!
...como é dificil fotografar a cabeça destes insetos sendo que o aparelho bucal delas apareçam, pois sempre estão com a cabeça voltada para baixo em direção ao pólen.
Genial esta foto porque tens a luz perfeita, com definição dos detalhes,cores e foco...muita clareza na leitura deste inseto!!
Sou fã desta!!!
Parabéns e muitíssimo grata por compartilhares teus trabalhos e pareceres!!
