Nice take on the assignment, and excellent macro work.
Regarding the selective coloring, I think I would tone down the saturation in the flower, and add some to the grasshopper. Currently the flower steals the show, yet I think the intended focal point was the grasshopper?
Thanks! My husband liked the flower as the "mini" whereas I liked the grasshopper. I probably should have tried to match the green of the grasshopper in the leaves and toned the flower down. I liked the splash of color so I kept it. If I made the grasshopper too green it looked fake. I really liked the shot and didn't want to overdo it. It was getting late and I wanted to get it in. I will keep working on it. I appreciate the comments and ideas and will try it out. -JEF
I agree with Jason I felt the hopper was a little washed out. I feel that the flower could also be desaturated as well but if it your focus then I just colorise it.
Great shot. I like the grasshopper peaking over the leaf.
As for pics showing up in the all entries section I don't know why it takes a long time to transfer there. Sometimes mine come up within an hour or so, and other times it has taken a day or more.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks for your kind comments! I appreciate it. It took forever to do. I hope it gets faster as I do more of them. Mine have never shown up, even the one I did for the monthly is more than 2 weeks old and still hasn't been posted .

Strange that it isn't, I have two guesses which may be purely nonsense.
First is you happen to be missing the colon in your title, and second, your image has a frame around it. Although with image upload the frame is automatically added anyway, so I can't see that making a difference...
