Greetings from the Critique Club...
Hi Thai :)
Here's some sound advice for you: Never submit an image that is less than 640 pixels on the longest side.
I don't think this photo does a great job of conveying your saying. This photo is also a bit of a compositional disaster. There is a lot of discontinuity in the lines, curves, shapes, and objects within the frame. There is also no reason this photo shouldn't be sharp throughout. It's a bit soft on the left side of the frame.. possibly motion blur from the slow shutter speed or from the shallow depth of field at f/2.8.
Better luck next time :)

| Very nice detail on the pattern of the snake's skin. I like the monochromatic nature of the photo with the wall the same color family as the snake's skin. The darkness of the lower left doesn't help the composition though. |

| I've never heard that saying, but I like it. And my ignorance won't influence my rating. Well, at least not my ignorance of the saying. ;-) |

| Cool shot, but I think it lacks that critical "grasping" element to hold me to the shot. The snake alone isnt enough for me. Still, good effort! Good luck with the next challenge! |

Never heard this saying before, but I like it!
Be careful with using direct on-camera flash. It gives the picture a look that isn't really all that desirable. |

| Nice shot. I like the color and the composition but I would prefer a deeper DOF to show the whole snake in focus. There is evidence of artifacts also. |
