Description Okay, I'm not too imaginative with this one's name... This was taken inside a lava tube of Undara, Australia's youngest volcano. The species is commonly known as a 'Microbat'. Weighing 3-15g, this bat was lucky enough to fly across the camera lens whilst I was shooting shots of the cave... I left the rock in there as well as the space because I thought It contrasted well. Meh.

I think this is great. The rock looks fine in the photo, gives the viewer more to look at then black space surroundings. It was a great shot Very lucky.

Thanks! As I said this photo was all luck, not really skill. I hope I can still pull off shots like this in the future.

I like this alot, it's very cute!

Yet a bit of manip could be used. I'd cut the bat out and create a new image featuring just the bat with a pure black bg.

And msn was screwing up sorry...

I was told that it looked better without the rock, but I'll photoshop that up tonight and see how it is.

If you still wanted to include the rock, how about making the canvas really panaramic and also extended it a bit further left so that the bat balances out the rock while cutting out the excess negative space at the top and bottom?
