A sorely underrated image. The hint of a victim, the blur, the macro close up and strong linear elements of the 'teeth' (what are they called?) all combine to create a powerfully oppressive feeling, claustrophobic and shivery. Nicely done.

wonderful, slimy, touchable, ugly image.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I was glad for the title, it helped make sense of the image. I like the blurriness too - it contributes to a sense of us being too close which helps to transport us into the image.

Critical stuff: I'm just not sure there is enough in the image to make it truly interesting.

Any more sharpness would have diluted the effect. This is perfect.
