    I like the first one. The pattern on the bowl takes away from the subject (IMO), so deff the first one! And I also have to say YUCK... it looks slimy and gros... I could never touch one! :uhoh

    I agree with invective in that #1 does the best for the challenge. As for the Yuck part, well, they are rather tasty little suckers:D. I just hate it when they suction cup themselves to the roof of my moutheek7.gif.

    I'm not sure that I like the cut off bowl though. It breaks from all the wonderful curves. Maybe a smaller bowl and include the entire curve of the rim. Just a though and my .02.

    I like the composition of #3, but the bowl is distracting. Try a solid color bowl. The idea is good.

    Oh my GOD!!!! :poke :oogle

    I have avoided looking at an octupus since I was 6. They disgust me. Agh agh agh!

    But it works great for the challenge, I'll admit.

    I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.
