I like it! Perfect photo realism of the test tubes and table top, plus cutesy
plastic bugs!
It has it all!!

Interesting scene!

First, I must say I don't find it seems the most 
appropriate
representation of "first encounter"....

But the image is a good one.  The only thing is it could
use a little more...it's too neat.  The "scientist" clearly
isn't tidy, since he left the paper where he did, but 
otherwise
things are pristine.  A little more clutter would go a long 
way.

The moon is a nice touch, but is probably too large.

Concept not clear to me.  Beakers and flasks could be smoother.  Nice bug
though.

Humourous, mysterious and satirical.
Shades of Frankenstein!

I like how the reflections and light interacts with your scene.
