Photo Contest- D. venusta seeds for the 5 best pictures

Hey everyone,
I just collected a bunch of seeds from my D. venusta "coccicaulis" on the 13th, so seed is very fresh.
If you want to learn more about this plant, visit http://www.growsundews.com/sundews/venusta.html
Rather than just giving them away, I figured I would have a little contest.
RULES:
1. Limit of 2 photos per entry.
2. Photos must be of carnivorous plants
3. 5 Winners will be picked exactly 1 week from today (March 22nd)

The winners will recieve 50 D. venusta "coccicaulis" seeds for SASE.
If I really like a photo, that person will receive 100 seeds.
(According to rarexoticripoffs.com that's like a $20 value:) )

And......GO!
 
here we go


:edit: click on it it looks much better that way. it is messed up.
thanks

N. truncata with my ugly, un-tanned, embarassing-my-Mexican-heritage hand. It will change in the summer. :)

What is the criteria for winning? Best-looking plant? Or best actual photograph?

Oh...and any limit as to the age of the photo? Old or new ok? (I have photos of plants now expired... :( )

PAK, it's pretty much a combo of those 2., but the picture doesn't have to be top quality by any means. If a plant looks great, then I will most likely think it's a great pic, even if you have a 1 megapixel camera with no zoom :). No limits on the age of the pics either.

Hey everyone,

This is sweet I love looking at everyone's photo's!

I hope I'm not discounted becuase mine is just of a standard VFT " Big Bite "

it may not be as nice as those neps but I thought it was nice anyways.
