Next year there will be more grass and more bugs. For this year everything is ready for summery rest!
Now I'll see new life coming from another fresher part of the planet!

Framing

I thought that the picture had too much useless space. That made the composition not strong enough. I know you wanted to show the Spanish summer, but I think there's too much free space in a picture. When you look at the picture your eye should focus on some important point (I guess on bugs) and not wonder around whole picture seeking something interesting to look at. I found my eye wondering and looking for some strong element of the composition. I've seen your other picture of the bugs and I think the framing is better there, but there's too little space now ;-) I tried to make something in middle, left some space but crop a bit too.
I must admit I find this picture very difficult to frame. The bugs poses are a little untidy ;-)

Crop and frame

Hi Jose, just a different view of this wonderful image. I just cropped the space from the left. I thought I'd try a frame and this seemed to fit. Hope you don't mind the workshop and like the result.
