Outtake from insect challenge.
It needed editing... lots of editing... still needs editing... :)

I guess I should add that these guys were in a tank at the Bug Zoo, done up like a whole little house. I wish I'd had some control over conditions, but I didn't :(

Thanks for the comments :D

Bwaaahaahaaahaahaa! This is a really funny shot. Love the title and how it plays into the composition!

First off, you mention it needed editing. Is that because of the lighting that you needed to use levels and brightness/contrast? Some time back a DPCer posted a link to this neat site that shows you the results of lighting at any given angle : //www.photoworkshop.com/public/3D_rooms/lightcage/index.html
Any light you can use, USE! Be it a desk lamp, spotlight lamp, regular lamp or several it will help to illuminate the scene and limit or eliminate the need for editing.

Second, I do like the composition but might I suggest two little embellishes to the scene to make it better? I see the title as someone who has leapt out of the chair and run screaming from the room to tell their significant other about the bug problem, "Honey! I think we have a bug problem!" As such the magazine would be lying face down on the floor and the coffee mug would lie shattered on the floor with the spilled coffee splattered.
