 I know it is not a great shot, but the contest motivated me to buy some glass for taking pictures of aquatic and soil creatures. Most of the images suffer from too much slime produced by the earthworm, and from moisture condensation on the glass due to moist soil (we've had some precipitation the last few days). No editing at all except to resize to meet contest requirements. If the image were better, I'd go on about the setup.

Could be an end result. The worm is captured with good dof. Nice rich soil.
