Thanks for all your comments. This was my very first submission and I'm proud of my place. Although I must admit I hoped for a Top 50...
Your comments are very helpful to me. I know now what to worry about when I'm going to take my next shots.
I knew about those white teeth but I could not change it. The light had to be very close because otherwise the silhouette of the bat (actually a Halloween confetti) would not have come out as well.
About the colors: Many said they didn't like them. I first tried a blue background, but in the end I decided for the biggest possible contrast. The colours were not ment to be soothing, but to cry out loud. ('Murder, murder' ;) |

| One of the best I've seen so far. Giving you and 8. Almost gave you a 9 but the "teeth" are quite blown out. Love the green against the red bg. Great idea with the bat. Good luck! |

I love the boldness of this, and the 'bat' inside the pod is an excellent addition.

| Nice backlight. Did you plant this bat inside? |

| The burned out highlights don't quite work for me but everything else is just great. Love that bat shape inside. |

| I like this picture a lot and think it's very creative in terms of color, subject, lighting... But I don't think it's completely natural, so I'm bumping it down a little. |

| Well this is a goodie! Perhaps a halloween caption would have been just as appropriate. Slightly overblown highlights. I'm assuming you had control over the lighting so I wonder if moving the lighting further away would have helped give a better balance, but then you might not have had such a good impression of the bat. |

| Cool. I'm not generally a fan of such intense colors, but it works very well in this shot. 8 |

| Like the color contrast. The spikes of the plant may be a tch too bright? And the bat shadow is just too cool. |

| Hey! That's a good idea! My only nit is the very blown out whites and left border of the plant. But the backlit bat looks great! |

| Hmmmmmm The fly trap is certainly bizarre. I'm not so sure about the bat (cut-out?) in the fly trap. It kind of detracts from the idea of nature. Nice colors and focus. I'll give some more thought to the score. :) |

| I see someone has a green thumb and has homegrown their own natural bat seedling. Great creation, background enhances the green, a little over exposed in the upper left area. Thanks. |

| Awesome shot if it is unmanipulated. I had gone over about 30 shots and all of them average or poor and then this comes along so it´s hard not to give it a 10. I love the colours and the whole idea. |

| nice concept, would have fit the challenge better if it was actually eating a fly instead of a goofy set-up |

| Wow! Fabulous! Great detail and sharpness. I love the choice of background and how the green and red complement each other. Also, the backlighting is perfect. |
