  :) Thanks Wendy.

Does it look like they are 2 different photographs.. I couldnt really get it how I wanted because the bee photograph was on a colorful background so I was hard to change it and get it with a dark background.

  No it doesn't! I wouldn't have known if you hadn't put it in your comments. I just thought you had great timing to catch that bee up there! :o) By the way I really like your "Ladybug Road" picture after you sharpened her up...Excellent!

  Yeah, I was wondering how that works. I'm new here, so I'm still somewhat confused on how this whole contest thing works. But definately re-enter it!

…, there thats what I don't like about this terrific macro photograph, Isabel. However, I do like the composition, the colors, and the bg DoF. I don't know much about PSP, but does it allow you to use layers. If so, that would make you life a whole lot easier when it comes to combining photos. If you'd like to see what I mean, check out my entry today at "http://www.betterphoto.com/forms/discussionDetail.php?threadID=155909". Wonderful job on this entry of yours, btw - Allan

  Not to be controversial (who me, not me, eh…) Isabel but why not just ask people what they like and have them offer for improvements. Asking what they don't like is so negative, eh… Anywaty, that's my 'other' 2$ worth - Allan, 'A', …

  Wow thanks so much everyone!!!

Christine this is probably to late but I would enter it in people.

:) Thank you Allan, I don’t think I have ever combined to 2 photographs together so this was my first time probably. Imp going to try to see if I can fix this shot up a little more. And thank you ill go check out your shot. Oh yah.. I was thinking about asking people what they like or don’t like and then asking for any ways that I could improve the shot. Ill do that tomorrow.

lol Kristen. :P I hope you have a nice day today and I hope you find your cat.

:) Have nice weekend everyone.

Isabel L
  Thanks!

Umm.. I had this picture of a bee with some other flowers but it didnt look that good. And I had this flower shot but it was like missing something. So I cut out the bee from the other photograph and then I pasted it to this one and I had to change the colors of the wings on the bee. So then after all of that..i got this?

  Isabel... the flower is very pretty & could probably stand alone. I don't think the bee looks like it belongs to this photo. I love the DOF. And, so many photos have their subjects dead-centered, I love how you composed this shot. Hope that helps.
