Greetings from the critique club.
Interesting find but I the connection to the challenge could be stronger. Granted, its a carnivourous plant but most viewers wouldn't know that. (I didn't either until I read your submission details). That's not saying there is no connection but the image is a bit of a shoehorn.
The background is quite bright and the subject itself is relatively dark due it being backlit. A reflector or a bit of flash may have helped.
The use of a large aperture was great as it blurred out the details in the background nicely. As Jason_cross indicated, the placement of the subject within the scene in relation to the background elements works really well.
The colors are pretty good but they would probably pop more if the subject was better lit.
Overall? Not bad at all for your first challenge entry and I hope to see more of your work in future challenges. |

| I love the attention to the composition of the background images. They are an important part of this photo. |
