So far I only have one entry and it doesn't really qualify.
Is the category (face closeup of your fish) not interesting?
Or has everyone already lost interest in the photo contest as a whole?
I can't read minds, so if you all have suggestions please feel free to post them.
If I don't receive at least 4 entries I will just cancel the current contest.

FWIW, I am still hoping to submit something to you, but haven't had time yet to take a photo that would meet the theme for this particular contest.

I thought the theme was neat, but definitely more difficult. I'm also not sure how my el'cheapo camera will do trying to take very up close macro-type shots.  :-\ I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone else does though.  :)

I am trying too......another el-cheapo camera here and a difficult subject for me to capture. I figured I'd take hundreds of pics in the next week and hope to get a good one by the 14th!

I only have my new baby syno's to take pictures of, and even thou I have a somewhat good digital, I don't think I can get a closeup face shot of a 3/4" fish. Not to mention the little ones don't stand still long enough to get a great full body shot. I will keep trying thou!

You've only been accepting photos for 2 days.
