For those that don't catch the reflection of the person "under the sea" with the octopus, look closer! ;D For anyone wondering this is an Enteroctopus dofleini, also known as the giant Pacific octopus. wiki
Not sure what this will score, but it's the whole reason I went to the aquarium today.
I sent a copy of this image to the aquarium asking what the "tree" was and just got this back... Just got confirmation from our husbandry department. The "tree" looking thing is actually an animal (who'd have guessed?!): an Invertebrate called a frilled anemone.

I gave you 7 Kelli. It's a cool illustration of the title, though the picture is a little 'full'. I really like the face - it doesn't look so much like a reflection as much as he looks like he's actually in there being colonized by the garden. Maybe he's part of the octopus's larder.
I scored this an 8 and I saw the face. What bothered me about it was the lack of prominence. I understand and appreciate the difficulties of a shot like this. Especially the patience part. But for all that, I still only gave it an 8 and that was purely for prominence of the intended subject element.
I gave it a 6 - if I'd seen the face, I'd have bumped it a bit. I loved that it was unusual and fit an unusual (to me) lyric well (even without the person).
#3, tied with another.
Gave this a higher vote simply because it was different. It's a little underexposed, but you managed to take a photo of something random and find a Beatle's lyric to fit the image. It could have been the other way around, but somehow I doubt it. It's irrelevant in the end, I just liked the fact it was vastly different then the rest of the entries.
