 Is this where we tell what it really is? Newbie Alert! It's a shedded piece of bearded dragon skin, with daylight backing it up so you get that translucent effect. The "teeth" are the spikes on the side of the body. They even shed the skin on those too. The camera is actually an SP320 but there's no such model in the list.

If the image was resized to DPC guidelines, it would be easier to judge the details. Next time follow the tips in this link.

A little more sharpness would have really added to the effectiveness of this shot. I like the translucent circular shapes.

Your image is too small. You should really save it at 640px for the longest edge.

Very interesting shot. Kinda reptilian? I wonder how a darker background behind the teeth would look in contrast to the ligher one you used.

I really love how this feels like it's a reptile of some kind with the scales, and teeth, etc. Bravo! I have no idea what It really is..

This is pretty cool what ever it is..? I think maybe a darker background would have given this more impact. The drama of the teeth is a little lost with the light background.
