Hello Jusni,
Lovely capture of two colourful bugs (Hemiptera) mating. I like the composition on the leaf and fine bokeh BG. I just wonder if the colours are a little over-saturated as the leaf colour seems too luminescent.
Thans for sharing thid beautiful image,
Best regards, Ivan

Hello Jusni,
What fabulous and colourful bugs you've found! I love the composition and the darker background. Patterns and colours are very clearly shown but it looks a bit over-saturated.

Hello Jusni
How curious and colorful these bugs! You captured them rather well being so small. I like a lot the framing, bg and composition.
Thank you very much for sharing.
Best regards
Maite

Bellissima e coloratissima macro, eccellente composizione, ottimo POV, buona nitidezza, bellissimi e saturi i colori. Grazie e complimenti. Ciao Maurizio

A fine reproduction of a natural reproduction Jusni, beautiful designs and colors, maybe a trifle too much saturated, but the general effect is pleasant indeed my friend.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Hi Jusni,

I have never seen such colorful bugs as this pair. Wonderful timing to get this shot. Details are razor sharp - colors are beautiful. They just manage to fit on this nicely shaped leaf.

Jane

very nice, pity it is not in focus, TFS Ori

Hello Jusni,
A very good composition!
The diagonal adds dynamics, and the colourful insects really stands out with sharp details...
Very well done, and with a wonderful colour palette!

Hello Jusni,
Wonderful macro of a colourful pair. Nice saturated colours have made them even more attractive. The composition and sharpness is adding up to make this an excellent photo. You must have been very close to the bugs with the 60mm for this shot :)

Hi Jusni.
I am amazed with your picture and pictured creatures. Coloration of the image is fantastic also as well as the lights, wonderful composition and perfect sharpness of the main subject. Smooth BG is so fine as leaf with the beetle on it. Bravo.

Halo Pak Jusni,
again you've captured so well, very detail. Good dark background. I wonder, the focus was on the legs of them, not on their back. I think it's a little bit difficult to choose the focus on a vey close objects, but really we should choose.
TFS,

Wow! Now they are some stunning bugs!!
What luck to find a mating pair!!
The saturation on the bugs is perfect but the surrounding foliage is too vivi I think.
Everything else is excellent though!
Great composition, superb POV, brilliant exposure, excellent BG and great focusing!
Well done Jusni!

Joe

Hi Jusni, shooting at 60mm, you got a very excellent close shot on these two. Saturation does seem a little high on the background, but those two bugs look very good with these bright colours. The detail seen on them is excellent with very good use of your lens to keep them in sharp focus while muting down the background. Very nice crop and excellent positioning of the two within the frame.

Thanks, John

God gives us great colours and you show the manifestation to us. Great work with great colours and excellent skills.
blurred BG make the hemiptera look outstanding.
Hope you did not intrude into their privacy.
