They have all been excellent, Balan. Great job with the low, eye-level, face on perspective, and isolating the subject against the bg.

Nice macro of this cricket, Balan. I like the effect of the backlighting and the interesting pose of the cricket straddling the leaves. Great combination of colors in this. A bit of fill flash may have been helpful to make his face more visible but also fine as is. :smile:
