C'est une très belle photo. Les teintes sont superbes. Dommage pour les pattes qui sortent de l'image.
Félicitations.

This is very creative work. The macro is great, and the post process reflections is even greater. Good work.

Está **********! Percebeste? O trabalho de bastidores está fenomenal e mais uma vez um fantastico sharp e um contraste muito bom!

Amazing post process. It's so seamless, you can't really tell that the reflection is computer generated. Beautiful!

Another very good picture. I am finding any of my pictures where I could use the filter. I downloaded it yeterday (thanks for the info) and was practicing it with my pictures. Its fun.

This picture, BTW, is great because of its clarity and of course, the filter.:)

I guess you don't even have to hope... and I'm sure, I'm not the only one to liked it... first you turn a dead bug into a beautiful thing to look at, then you create the whole composition so magic!! so simple, isn't it? GREAT WORK Luis!!!!

An amazing macro shot, Luis. I think that the 'water reflexion' is brilliant. The clarity and contrasting colours are excellent. Well done.

This is very impressive, Luis. It looks like a piece of art made of some bitumen material. Details are amazingly sharp and the light (specially on the abdomen) reveals them perfectly. I didn't get exactly how you did the reflexion, but the result is very attractive.

I agree with Bruno...this is a "magical" photo. You turned death into something natural and beautiful...that takes artistry!

Great clarity, reflection, color... especially the reflection showing the wiggly legs leading out

This is awesome! At first glance, I was thinking to myself "He must have had his camera set at a very fast shutterspeed to not get movement from the "floating bug"...Boy do I feel dumb :)Had you not mentioned that you created the water reflection in Photoshop, I would have never known! It is done very very well compiled.
