Incredibly different and strikingly appealing to the eye. You've left just enough interest and mystery to draw the viewer in and leave them slightly "fuzzy" on the subject matter.

Hmmm...I'm curious as to what it is. Maybe I really don't want to know! Is it animal, vegetable or mineral? A very interesting shot though.
