Once again, the Sigma 105mm macro comes out! I just took some random shots for this challenge and I really liked what happened with this image when I did autolevels and autocolour. I did some very minor editing apart from that including noise reduction to smoothe it all out.
It looked like a human foetus floating in the womb to me.
It could go either way...a 5 if people don't see it or a 6 if people do...
What am I hoping for realistically? A 6.3
POST: Well, it bombed...I Love the image and it reminds me of stuff Ursula would do. If I called it Embryo or something like that, it might have done better? Maybe it would have done better in another challenge
There were some comments to the effect that I am saying an embryo is not human...that is a TOTAL misunderstanding of this image! I am saying an embryo is a person and this looks like an embryo, therefore it is a personification. I am a Christian pastor and pro life...so, not sure what the people were on about

Actually, I knew it was not a real fetus, but my objection was to the insinuation that a fetus is not a person.i.e. justification for abortion. The fact is, I did not vote on this entry, I just made the comment.
Had he used a real fetus and called it a personification then your point would have been well taken. He is saying that this image is a personification of a fetus.
