I elected to use a rating table to decide on what value to assign during voting.
Here’s the table:
1 No Animal/People Interaction
2 Slightly Appealing, but no Animal/People Interaction
3 Moderately Appealing, but on Animal/People Interaction
4 Greatly Appealing, but no Animal/People interaction
5 Not Appealing, but possessing Animal/People Interaction
6 Slightly Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
7 Moderately Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
8 Greatly Appealing and possessing Animal People Interaction
9 Better than #8, and caused an audible sigh
10 Better than #9, and would likely declare it a favorite

isn't that place awesome?! If you don't have the membership, I strongly suggest it. My parents bought me one and now I can go whenever I want and as much as I want :)

Great shot! Not sure how you managed to keep the flash glare out of this shot, but well done.

They dressed nicely for the fish! Observation going on everywhere. Wonder if it confuses the fish to see people underneath them that they can't get to.

Looks as if the fish are observing the humans as well, works well for this challenge with the one human looking back at them. Super!

I love the idea of this image but the people bother me for some reason. Too many maybe it would be better if all of the people were "interacting with the fish like the guy in the blue.

Interesting it's a one way interaction as the fish don't seem to care. I like the reflections of the people in the glass above.
