He could be the creature from the black lagoon or the back of the closet! Looks very dramatic in black and white. All the best to you for the B&W contest. Creature will be a strong contender!

Those are some fearsome teeth in the claws of that wee beastie. I like the lighting from above emphasising the contrast between said beastie and the black background.
And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
Makes me want a Crabbie Pattie. Great shot and I wish you well in the contest JimboB. It is very well done. It looks like it is standing on its three hind legs. :)
Great entry for the contest...I see this and I think of the show "Deadliest Catch". (love that show). Nice work here Jim...very well presented and a great B/W.
