Brought the picture up on my monitor and postioned a halogen desk lamp behind it. The light was reflected over the top and onto my hand.

The camera was set at a 10 second delay to give me time to position my hand.

Cool idea, a double exposure I assume. Was the zoom effect added afterwards?

Beautiful Discus. I think it is a good interpretation of the challenge. The hand framing the fish helps to keep the focus.
