Oh my this is good. The message is clear as is the photograph and you have all the elements in there to tell the story of what is yet to be born. I like the angle as well, balanced with good marginal space all round this is a most pleasant image to view.

Great idea. Congrats

Congrats again Vibeke

This is a very sensual image and evokes the feeling of a new life coming into bloom. Wonderful bokeh that completely supports this pod and the red and green (as you know are contrasting colours on the colour wheel) really pop this one out. Sensational image, it is sharp and really speaks to me. The pov with the pod "flying" into the shot from the side is well constructed. It is top notch work, worthy of hanging up on your wall and a small signature in the corner.

Thank you

Wonderful. Congrats.

I like the framing of this shot, even with the blur of the foreground twigs. You make us feel like we are witnessing something special and we are, we see a disgruntled mother bird protecting her young. It is an intrusive image, but that aspect is it's strength.

Nice, congrats.

Beautiful

Thank you.

Great detail. The reddish background really makes the foreground colors pop.

Thank you so much, nice of you to say.

Terrific shot, gives me the creeps. How did you get that close without being stung??

You cannot get any newer than this. Great sharp focus and right in our face...your POV is perfect. I have nothing to critique just to say frame this and hang it up.
