I think this is a very interesting plant.. I also think it would have been better without the glare of the lights on the right hand side.. I don't like your border very much. it's intrusive, and just doesn't fit the shades of the plant.. other than that, wow. cool shot!

ALMOST a GREAT shot - the flash leaves so many hot spots... and a photo only needs a frame when it's going on the wall, IMHO.

nice macro, I like this...slight glare spots, but still a great shot...

Nice shot....this orchid might "catch flies", but it's not a venus fly trap (no score, just being flower "picky"). Good color and focus. Maybe a touch too much flash. You might also consider washing the white stains off the leaves for more appeal. 8 Rob the Swash

Like the photo, but unless they are called different things in different parts of the world, that isn't a venus fly trap. Looks more like some sort of pitcher plant.

There are too many flash hot-spots here for this particular shot to work effectively. Otherwise, nice composition and I like the border.

Busy, but not overly so. Not really sure about the boarder...

Why is it called Venus Fly Trap? It's an orchid.

Wonderful shot with excellent detail and color. I found the wide frame to be distracting.

nice orchid (I think it's an orchid not the fly trap) and nice color

Nice flower. It would gain by being presented with a side or 3/4 lighting instead of an on-camera flash.

The flash is way to harsh and spoils the photo

That's a pitcher plant isn't it? Flash is a bit harsh directional lighting would have helped. Great plant.
