I love the photograph, but can we just take a moment to understand and really *feel* that this insect is missing one entire leg? What has he or she gone through to get to this point in life?

The only thing that would possibly make this one better, and this is just my humble opinion, is if that guy was wearing one of those T-Rex costumes that people run around in.

How many people enter this contest? It seems strange and unlikely that "Glenn Homann" has won 11 out of 25 categories (so far). Something doesn't add up here!
