I guess these guys are cannibalistic. It has a huge egg sack.   -JIM-

I need to learn how to isolate an area to get ride of stuff like the overexposed body. I will play with some things because you are right about it beign too bright compared to the rest of the image. -JIM-

Here is one more full size image. None of these have been cropped at all.  I tried selecting the egg sack on a couple of the images and toning down the highlights. The colours were way better and the slightly blown out parts looked great. The only problem was that I was left with an obvious line around the egg sack. I tried tracing a little inside and a little outside, the line was always there, just showed up differently. Is there a method I should try in order to reduce the brightness of the sack which is reflecting way more light? Thanks, Jim -JIM-
