I came up with this shot of a weevil and am not sure if I like it or not in terms of the lighting :scratch .
I would have preferred it if it was facing me a little more.
Anyway please leave a :deal re your thoughts.

    Rather like the weevil shot - looks like it's pondering something :)

    To be, or not to be--that is the question:

    Quoth Weevil.

    I dont mind the lighting. It looks like a studio shot..

    Thanks for the comments Brian / Steve.
    The shot was taken in my backyard on a rose bush Steve.

    I like the weevil shot too, it gives the impression it's body is heavy and its an effort to walk, or appearing to be resting before heading off again.

    They're both good shots thumb.gif .... Skippy :D
