Not the most pleasant subject matter I've ever snapped, but fits the theme. My cat left this morsel for us. Shot him right where the cat left him, got lucky with the ant.

ohhhh! i like the ant...he's the who catches my attention..nice composiion...the subject is yucky (just a joke), but dont worry still a very high mark...rating...7
Oh dear, I have already voted on a dead fish and another dead rat...
However, I feel that your picture has a little, not a lot, more taste. But I would persoanlly have shooted the ant away as this cheapens and adds to the disgusting-ness of the image's content.
Also, perhaps it would have put the mouse into a more peaceful position by prodding down it's legs which are waving in the air?
OMG! that is so sad. Aww, it looks like one of my gerbils. This photo definetly catches people's attention becuase of the shock factor. Great focus, like the b&w, contrast is good. The DOF is a little too short for my taste. great job otherwise.
Excellent and nice angle. Good composition.
Nice textures and great decision to go black and white.
Would remove that stick towards top/ back.
Like the inclusion of that ant investigator.

A dead rodent isn't that compelling of a subject for me. I don't really connect with this shot. The ant is a nice touch and the DOF works here, the softness adds to feeling of despair.
