11 things that I love about dA1. I became a part of this site as a wee lass of 11. In the seven years that have passed since then, I have been staring at the exact same four shades of grey every time that I log on to dA.

2. The growth I have experienced as an artist has truly shaped me into a different person over the years. I began as a traditional artist, who's first deviation was an MS paint drawing of a horse (and a beautiful one, if I may say so), a few years later became a poet, and am now a photographer. dA has been an excellent resource for immersing myself in art forms that I had never previously thought to attempt.

3. How rapidly I am able to learn and expand

Last ladybug pic I promise!

Not super happy with the focus on this one. I don't know when I'll be able to get myself out of bed at 6am again, but when I do I am going to try my hand at some more ladybug photography until I get something I'm really happy with.

All constructive criticism is greatly appreciated!

Critique by ~steroidart Apr 20, 2012, 9:55:58 PM

A very good picture with clearly defined objects.
The best part of the picture is that the subject is being excellently focused and stands out to the eye while still merging and enhancing the overall beauty of the picture.
Also noticeable is the amount of colors present, forcing the viewer to clearly distinguish between the surroundings and the subject.
Contrary to what you say, the focus is just about the right amount and only where needed. It is good that you did not feel the need to digitally edit this picture, but if you have, it looks great nonetheless.
I believe that the question of lighting and angles is moot as you have done a perfect job of it.
It's pretty much safe to say that it is one of the better nature photography works out there. Kudos!
