Monkey close up

[Valkaria]

What do you think of this shot? I'm curious since I like it a lot.

I'm considering to enter it in this contest,

http://photocontest.nowpublic.com/

from which I don't have any idea about the quality of the entrees. I'd like to know if you guys think I'll only be laughed at by the jurors or can I enter it without feeling ashamed that I 'dare to do so' so to speak?

Valkaria, I have a rule to decide if I enter or not to a photocontest, do I like it? if yes, then go. If not choose another one.
To me, the most important thing is the feeling I have on each pic, probably with some technical errors, but overall looks fine.
Maybe, you can reduce the brightness and can be more focus on the subject, the blue on the background is distracting a bit.
Thanks Art
