Hey Keith - I just HAD to find one of your photos to COMMENT on based on something recently read in one of the forum posts. ;^) So...I opened up your portfolio, took a peek, and remembered how much I enjoyed this photo. Very clever the way you set it up. With 3 kids around the house we may have to try this ourselves. By the way, you get the high honor of receiving my 500th comment! Just had to say that. He-he...

I am afraid to even ask what this is! Fits the challenge, interesting photo. Like objects from a prehistoric cespool were perserved in ice. Good lighting to be able to see everything so clearly.

I think this is a great picture, but I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking at, and I've stared for quite some time now. My first hunch was some objects trapped in an amber-like substance, but I decided that's not it. The objects look like embryos, which would be supported by the title, but where are they? What's all the stuff around them?? I'm scoring a 6 in spite of my confusion - it's an attractive, scientific-illustration-type picture.

The only primordial soup / seedling pic that made any sense.
