Comment by moodville:
Compositionally this is good, it has all the elements associated with the subject and all nicely placed. The hand gives it a nice dimension of being just a little bit more than a still life. I can certainly see science in this image. The lighting is good and the image is clean. It may appeal more to those who have an interest in entomology, but it is still a well-captured image.

Great photo! The only thing I can think of to critique is that the book cover is contrasty and distracting. Other than that, I think you've got a good chance of being in the running.I'm giving it an 8. Good luck!

Especially with those flames from the candles! ;) This is a very cute shot and idea. The DOF is wonderful and the clarity in the front is again, wonderful. The cropping is a bit tight in the front, and the border is okay but would have worked better if the thick black wasn't on the outside. An 8 :)

Very nicely done photo - composition is strong. Looks like an ad for a magazine. Lighting is good, however it might be better if the left looked like the right... where the wristband fades into the backgroun as it curves. On the left there is a pretty bright spot. Frame works well for the photo... 8
