This is one my faves from the challenge. I LOVE hermit crabs! They are so cute.

If you ever make a print of this, let me know. I would love to buy one! :)

Nice work. I gave it an 8. But then again...I'm an unconventional pet person, too. Good composition and use of DOF.

Oh goodness! I think this is as cute a shot as some of the dogs and cats in this challenge. Look's like he's saying "oh hi, I am a crab and it is very nice to meet you and oh boy you are big."

7 - Unusual. Like to see Chris' eyes more toward camera and more clarity there.

Settle down, Chris. Take it easy. Put that thing away.
I like the composition and depth of field.

Does he meow? Great entry. Nice to see people use something other than the normal models. Nice detail and DOF. The color cast feels a bit strong but I like the shot none the less. 7 fo rnow.
