Caterpillar on a Blade of Grass

I'm kind of up in the air on your picture. Just seems that there is way too much background with all those intersecting green lines. Have you considered a re-crop?

Looks like a nice shot.. but as Joel mentioned, a tighter crop would definitely help. It also looks a bit underexposed to me.

Soft, noisy, under-exposed photos are my calling-card...

I thought about a crop as well. I will mull it over more. I just liked the blade of grass being so extensive across the frame and the caterpillar trekking across it...

Thank you for the comments. I will keep them in mind.

Not too bad. A tighter crop could be cool. But I would definitely hit this with some noise reduction.

That's certainly understandable sir. However, I shoot with the INTENT of creating noisy, soft, under-exposed photos. Its my style and so if you would like to reduce the noise, you may feel free to edit it. I do understand what you mean. A lot of people want sharp images. I want more "painting-like" photos.

I am also wondering what a crop would do for this. The crop I have now lends itself well, in my humble opinion, to the path ahead for the caterpillar. If I crop it further, then the story becomes slightly different. Is there any reason in particular for a tighter crop? The story isn't the caterpillar itself, but of it and its path forward.

One thing I still have yet to do is minimize the distraction of the paler grass in the middle.

Apparently that's why the phone doesn't ring
