Here's a fun challenge... not sure how voters are gonna handle this one though.

Challenge: Delay
Description: While inviting the viewer to look at the image, a key element is embedded in the composition in such a way that it reveals itself only slowly or after a pause.

Trying to get the voters to delay are you, eh?

I think your Title and Description are inconsanant, and invite the usual debate and division about the "meaning" of the challenge and the attendant quota of OOB/"shoehorned" images...

Yes, it would.

Lots of comments like " I don't see anything that's being delayed.".

"I saw the embedded element too quickly, DNMC!"

I was thinking the same thing. That would certainly hit the voters over the head with the idea.

NO! LOL, it's a compositional challenge... and hopefully a training exercise for the voter. Animated GIFs... :-P

Difficult to achieve, high risk of a plethora of DNMCs, angry people arguing in threads over it... let's do it!

How would that be different from any other challenge? ;o)
