I don't think those are teeth, I think they're maggots!

Sorry about the mispelling in the title, most embarrassing for me!

This is not a macro. It has real bright sun spots.
The subject is kinda gross.

eat them up ... yum yum yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

OK, haven't heard that one in a while. Anyways, in regards to the photo; Not exactly my type of thing and that's because of a few things mainly it's not a very attractive subject and the perspective doesn't work for me along with the fact that it's centered. In my opinion, I would have shot the head come out from the right hand side as if its trying to hop into the frame and maybe cutting the frame off on it's body so that you can't see that the head is severed!?!? But there are possibilities in this shot!

Just my suggestions, nothing more or less. Good Luck.

Well, it's definitely a closeup. If I could bear to look at it again I'd have more to say, but I just can't. Sorry! 4

While it is good to see some origiality in a challenge full of bugs and flowers, this doesn't look very appitizing. Interesting choice of subject for a photography contest.

I just don't like anything about it. It just disgusts me. Sorry.

YUK! however, aside from the revolting subject this is a really nice image. good focus and lighting and the colors are, well, realistic. looks as if it should have been to an orthodontist in its youth...

Good try but just not a shot I can rate 10 but I can do 7 for effort. I just dont find this appealing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Ewe thats a brave submission, obviously not worried about getting the popular vote ;-)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/04/2005 02:27:07 PM
LOL I can smell it from here! As a fisherman myself, I have no queasiness about the shot. Really nice DOF, but it seems a little overexposed. There are some hot spots that are a bit of a distraction. Still, it's a good catch (so to speak - har har har). Nice job.

'Fish heads, fish heads, eat them up, yum!'
While this is a faintly disgusting subject, I applaud your choice of title! The highlights are a little blown, but the colors are good. Frankly, I could have done without seeing the severed edge of the head. The textures and detail are technically good, but in actuality, they're pretty gross. All in all, a 7 from me.
"See them in the morning, laughing happy fish heads, see them in the evening, rolling in your soup!'
