This is a great photo. Wonderful use of low DOF here... I love how you know it's a dog, and he's looking at the grasshopper, but all your attention is also on the bug, almost as though you are the dog. Just very well done! I think cropping some of the top and the left might have helped to make this better compositionally... but I really enjoyed seeing this photo... :-) Nicely done.

Fantastic Macro of this spider. Only thing that could possibly improve it is if it were on something other than the towel. It really is excellent.

Made me think of some old geezer in a movie saying "Son, life is like a game of chess, gotta play it well and make the right moves, or else you will end up loosing" ;-)

Maybe having all pieces in focus would improve the shot?

An interesting interpretation of life... nicely captured shot. The extreme tones have been captured well although I wonder if the curves could have been adjusted to bring out a tad more detail in the knight. Great lighting, very moody and atmospheric. The composition works very well here. I like the graininess of the picture. I really can't stand that drop-shadow border though, totally unnecessary. 9

i like it
more texture on the knight
different title maybe
life is full of choices - something like that would make me think differently about it
life is how you play the game....
