You could have closed in further and captured the bee in more detail, with pollen grains all over it's body. A very original photo and wonderful opportunity for a bee macro

Superb lighting and composition, but don't like two leaves at right poking into the wonderful scene.

The lighting is very nice. What light source did you use? I The highlights are just a wee bit burned out.

The blossoms (?) on the right are distracting though.

The black background does not work too well for me. Apart from that, this is a beautiful capture. Would be even better if shot from further down and more towards the creature's head.

The color of subject(s), details and composition are just about spot on. However, the black/dark background does not look particulary appealing on butterflies, which are essentially day-flying creatures.

Good details esp. considering that it was taken on Velvia apparently in bright midday sun. BTW I'm curious to knwo which area you spot-metered from.

Terrific composition and lighting.

The foreground bushes could have been excluded, a bigger image would be better. Distant buildings kind of intrude into the scene. That said, this is a good landscape.

Partly, yes. But the top edge of photo is out of focus. Either you did not parallel subject plane with the film (sensor) plane, or it is due to the leaf's curvature, or both.
