These are the nine elements of Composition. Hover over the pictures for the definition. I really like taking pictures of wildlife & insects in macro setting. I like how they are close up and focused on the subject with a blurred background. I have taken a lot of pictures of flowers in macro mode and a lot of animals as well. I've just always liked being outdoors and with animals, so I think that's why I like taking pictures of that kind of stuff. When I was little, I always thought that the best pictures were the ones that were up close and in focus, so I guess that stuck with me.
For taking a picture like this, I would use a Telephoto lens because it's a close up, and It would be 135+ mm lens. From the critique I learned that I need to lighten up my pictures a bit, even though I tend to like darker ones. I guess that I could have taken the picture outside instead of inside
