| Nice shallow depth of field. The color is good if not slightly over exaggerated. It is a little unclear what is going on in this image. It is too bad the green plant is in the front where it is a little distracting to the overal composition. |

It appears that you are going for a death scene with this image (based on the image and title), which of course fits the challenge very well.
Unfortunately I'm finding the focus on the fly to be problematic. The fly seems to blend into the darkness (heh) and loses quite a bit of detail. I can see where the fly eating the snake? shows decay and death, but I really think the whole image should be in focus so the viewer can easily see what is taking place. Also the plant in the foreground draws my eye away from where the action is - at the fly - thus it and its blurred nature is distracting. If the fly is in fact alive and this isn't a staged shot, I can see how it would be difficult to get a good composition, since flies aren't very cooperative, but that's where I think the image needs the most help - composition. The subject is good, death/decay and the fly & snake help give it an even darker tone since many folks don't find them to be the most beautiful of creatures, so I think your idea is quite sound. Just needs a bit of tweaking in the composition department and a little more lighting to help draw out the details of the fly. I gave a 3. |

| Good concept. I would like it better if the snake were more in focus and the fly were visible. Kind of creepy, but it meets the challenge. |

| Snakes are popular. It's a bit blurry. |
