Wow, bet his really catches the eye as you first see it. Like the dark background, good focus and frame with a nice exposure to show the very colorful details.

Should have been a great entry submission for RED contest. Love the natural lighting, showing the natural colors. Very fresh and the natural background is just nature's best. Well captured, but framing can also be improve by giving a bit more a margin at the top.
