At last! This little critter has been in my house for a while so finally caught him as he was about to take the bait. I hope this doesnt upset anyone I just thought it was so fitting of the challenge and after all the mess it made I am not really sad to see it go
Just cropped, downsized and slightly sharpened
contrast + 10

i almost shed a tear looking at this image, animal cruelty being a personal sore spot.. but death being the subject and all I think its a beautiful photograph and the power to draw emotion from within someone in any manner of a captured image is well worth reward.

Death is the subject. This is an image of an corpse.
Now you made me feel sorry for the mouse.

way too morbid
12/11/2006 03:21:49 PM
That is horrible.

powerful, strong image (8)
12/10/2006 03:35:43 PM
Accidental, natural or implied death OK, but this just turns my stomach. You must have expected that!
12/10/2006 03:17:10 PM
ouch....
12/09/2006 05:58:41 AM
its disgusting! but u deserve good points for that...:)

You know... as much as it hurts me to look at this image (I had pet mice) I am gonna bump your score up some because I think that among the dead animal pictures this is one of the ones that got the artistic aspect down a little better. Things are in focus, lighting seems good, composition is decent, colors are good.

This seems pretty mean, i REALLY hope you found him like this and didn't set the trap just for this shot. Either way i dont like it, so 3, only giving the 3 cuz the Dof is nice, and i gotta give points for the composition not just the content

Yikes - real death
12/07/2006 10:30:06 PM
oh no!...well at least he got in a nibble before he died.
12/07/2006 09:14:14 PM
ugh. this isnt artistic its just sad.
poor little thing.
i have a soft spot for rats so im not to fond of this.
how would you liked to be squished and photographed?
12/07/2006 05:28:00 PM
baaaaah...I'm sorry, but this is really disgusting...
12/06/2006 11:20:19 PM
i hate to see this
12/06/2006 11:03:55 PM
this is horrible if you did this for a challenge, seeing this is outside there was absolutley no reason for this mouse to die.
12/06/2006 08:53:05 PM
aww I hope you didn't set this little guy up to die just for the shot.
12/06/2006 03:47:31 PM
that's cruel
12/06/2006 01:12:17 AM
That ought to teach him!
12/06/2006 12:51:07 AM
Oh no!
