Cute... but I think you could learn a lot from the other bellybutton shot (with the bird tattoo) in this challenge. A more distant view, with warm lighting would be a lot nicer. This close, I can see a lot of detail of skin, hair, scars, blemishes, etc. that don't really enhance the photo. Even in comparison to an all out grotesque shot like the tongue photo or the nostril photo in this challenge, this just doesn't work.

I see three fish. If feeding time refers to 4 o'clock, thats a little obscure. Remember, folks like things fairly obvious.

Comment by sylandrix:
As for meeting the challenge, I don't feel it meets it as strongly as it should - one fish is hard to see - but otherwise the elements of the photo make a very interesting abstract, especially the colored bits on the top left. Looks a little messy with the grass, perhaps a composition where the grass is less cluttered would have worked better.

Should have had someone hold up a piece of paper to get rid of this glare. Would have beena much better shot.

I don't know how you did this. It sure looks illegal to me. I'll give you a 9 because I have no %$*ing idea how you did it (special feature on your camera?). Jacko 9

Interesting shot and I'm certain you did it in camera... I just hope your ready to hear the shouts of the angry mobs :) Not sure how I feel about this kind of shot myself yet... I'm going to judge it on it's merits, I just am having some trouble deciding if I like it...

cool effect. i saw the discussions in the forums and didn't think this was going to be accepted as legal. glad to see that it is ... i'm jealous of the feature :) nice way of using it for the challenge, too. i wonder what the overall result of your shot is ... if people will accept this in-camera function. i hope they will. good luck :)
