Wonderful detail and framing, Jake. I like that the bat appears to be looking directly at the blossom. Excellent.

Excellent shot, Jake. Love how the bat is looking up at the flower and the wings are nicely up and away.

Very nice capture of this little nectar bat homing in on its meal, Jake. Good composition and excellent detail.

Thanks Carol: Just realized that I spelled Nectar incorrectly. Could you change the name for me?

Beautiful capture. The flower looks a bit droopy and I would like to see a bit more of the stem for composition if you have it in the original, but the rest is technically and aesthetically superb in my opinion.
