Title: Flower and Insect
Post by: gryphon1911 on June 16, 2015, 15:28:31

I like this image, I just wish the bee would have cooperated more and faced the lens!

Anyone else have any suggestions for improvement?  I would appreciate your unbiased opinions on it.

Thanks!

To my eye, the flower heads of the daisy look quite blown out.  If you have access to PhotoNinja, might be worth while to see if PN can salvage the blown areas.

A tighter crop would make the composition more powerful, but not helping the issue referred to above. So I would try that approach first.
