Well, I couldn't think of a better title, if you have a suggestion please say! It's a bit different to my usual offerings - my wife said 'yes, it's a bit different for you but rather sickly'......can't please all the people all the time. All images are mine, no AI BUT I must say the latest Ps Select Subject saves a lot of time! Any critique appreciated, as always.
Well, I wouldn't mind looking this pretty but the spider really turns me off...great contrast of feelings!

Terrific work. I believe I would not miss the wasp and spider. Definitely the wasp and maybe the spider. If it was mine I might attempt to darken the background a bit for more contrast just to see how that looks.

He’s quite a friendly spider Veronica, wouldn’t hurt a soul! And you have got it of course, he’s there for the contrast. Many thanks for commenting.

Yes, the wasp can go saxman - but not the spider, he’s essential. The background started darker but I wanted a much lighter overall look. I felt it lost its ‘fantasy’ feel when darker. Many thanks for your thoughts on it, I appreciate them.

A pleasure to see this composite was made using your creations rather than an AI creation. I have the feeling that the size of the butterfly is too large when comparing it to the size of the bird and flowers.

As it’s a fantasy image Gaylord, there is no need to compare reality. So the butterfly can be any size we like - of course I do realise that some folk won’t think it looks ‘good’ (rather than ‘right’) but it’s the size that I thought suited. I might well be wrong, I’m not used to doing fantasy! I do appreciate your input, you know that, but I think I’ll leave it as is.

The image to me appears to be sharpest right at her face. I'm assuming this was done intentionally and it works for me. R.G. mentioned and "odd" look; but I think "beauty" itself is completely subjective. She looks beautiful to me.

Just a subjective comment: I really like the pastel colors and I appreciate the creativity of creating the image. I'm just not sure of those insects. I think the world would be an extremely boring place if we all liked the same things.

I agree Fstop. Of course the insects could go but that would be a different picture.
