Very trippy, What the h? This would/could ribbon in many challenges and might in this one. I think it has a smidge too much open space across the top.

Very interesting and abstract! The detail and the coloring are amazing. I find myself just staring at the "face" of the fish. I like the side lighting used here rather than a more straight on lighting. Very nicely done!! 9

What is that thing. The shape of it and what it looks like is great for the challenge but what is it actually? Nice studio shot. Lighting, clarity, color, and composition all look good and it meets challenge.
