Seems safer than a bank today

It does seem safer.
Great Idea and great execution. Light from the candles to help light the box is great. I would have been tempted to be slightly fdurther out, and make more use of the reflections as well (would need to see the result though) as at the moment the candle reflections (especially the small one) are awkwardly cropped (can just see the light glow from it)
But thats minor. Great capture here. Well Done

Nice shot of the wing but unfortunately your focus looks off on the head and I think your score might suffer a bit because of this.

Good colour and contrast throughout the image.

Lovely colors... I wish the face/body were a bit more in focus. Looks like it's focused a bit back (on the rear leg).

I wish they were looking down at their work rather than at the camera.

I gave this a 7. I didn't recognize you. Very sharp and met the theme better than most of the entries. Well composed and lit. The best part that really gives "pop" to this is the contrast and clarity.
