Shadow Challenge - ?????

[Head in the Clouds]

Hi,
I don't know if this looks plain dodgy or ok? I really like the idea, but am not sure if I have the ps skill to pull it off?
Any suggestions? ....

Cool shot.. :-)


The ONLY thing I can see that looks 'off' about it (And mind you, i'm no professional.) is the shadow of the wing is a tad more crisp that the shadow the bug its attached to.

Other than that, I like it. ;-)

Great idea. I think with a bit more work and a few variations you would have the winner of the challenge. Great job. :thumb (my vote at least) :)

I will now spend the time and try to figure out how to do a better job of it.
thanks for the feedback!

Hey Kate, any way to bring down the brightness of the left leaf? It might be blown out, and if it is, nothing to do about it. But bringing it down would let the eye focus more on the insect and the shadow, maybe?
