 Thank you very much for the comments.

Found this moth hanging out on the ledge of the glass door to my apartment building, enjoying the glow from the stairwell light. Shot through the glass, which explains the streaks to the right. And what I hoped looked like a shake or snow or some sort of disturbance was really dust and particles on the glass and ledge. Very happy with the way it turned out.

I don't know why I gave this an 8. It's a 10!

Robbed. Absolutely robbed. No way in my mind that this is not a ribboner.

Definitely my favourite, my highest score and my pick for the blue. I just love the detail, but more so the personality you've managed to capture!

Absolutely gorgeous! Love the unconventional use of B&W, and together with the wonderful lighting and detail makes this image rock. Best in show!

I like what you've done here with the processing by embracing the far ends of light and dark. I assume the specks are dirt on the window that caught light? So cute and fluffy, yet so scary...

Just an incredible photo. I almost makes me think of a dog shaking but this is a tiny bug. Beautiful lighting.
