The special lighting effect is very successful.
A stunning shot perfect on all counts.
I really like the sharp details on the wings, and the see-through body and legs. Fantastic job, Ken, and TFS. : )

A brilliant shot. You could not have done better had you been able to choose exactly the colour scheme. Great!

Excellent POV and DOF. Th ebacklighting has worked very well in this case, producing another beautiful shot for your gallery. Well done.

Hi Ken,
that's the perfect shot. Very sharp and with pretty colours. The light is wonderful from behind, so the legs are looking transparent.
Very well done, thanks

Excellent macro Ken Su!

Sharp focus and excellent exposure on this backlit subject. The "rimlight" created by the backlight is wonderful.
Great work and TFS
