Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread. Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Old blue eyes
Not sure of the true common name for this as I have seen it called by two different names, perhaps they are both correct?
Blue Eyes Lacewing or Giant Orange Lacewing(Nymphes myrmeleonides) Approx 60mm body length At rest on the underside of a sunflower leaf  Same bug, same leaf which I managed to pick off the flower stem and place onto a flat surface to get another angle, i've over flashed both these me thinks because of the shadows.  Fuji X-Pro1 | X-E1 | X-T1 | XF14 | XF23 | XF27 | XF35 | XF56 | XF60 | XF10-24 | XF18-55 | XF55-200 | MCEX-11

Re: Old blue eyes
Hi Geoff,
These pictures are affected by the forum resizing making it look soft! When I click through, it looks very much sharper. Nice work on your part to reposition the critter for better shadows. I am not a fan of the double shadows though. If there was only one shadow, then it would be believable that it could be the sun etc... From a compositional viewpoint, I prefer the headon shot you posted in the 52 frames segment.
