Omitting extraneous details you strengthened the visual impact of this image by zeroing in on this unusual looking insect! Great colors to highlight its fine features...congratulations on your POTD!

Wonderful composition Kumiko! Beautiful color, complimenting but not distracting from this fine and delicate insect! A lovely macro! Congrats on POTD!

Outstanding detail on this unusual little insect...love the eyes, the segmented body which is demarcated so well, & the delicate and transparent wing detail. A very lovely colorful composition with the beautiful poppy inclusion...big congrats, Kumiko!

A very interesting and detailed image of this bug! Those transparent wings with the color showing through, and the eyes are amazing. Congratulations, Kumiko!

Thank you so much, Robin-Lee, Pat, Mustafa and Joyce! He had those metallic eyes, my other photo of his eyes was creepy!

Wonderful macro, Kumiko. Your use of DOF in this photo creates a soft, colorful yet detailed image. Congratulations on your POTD.
