Has to be digitally done, but it's awesome nonetheless.

Teaming with life! Wonderful idea, image and tonality.

Wonderfully done! I'm guessing this is 'shopped.

I like the perspective, i bet every angler wishes they could see like this.

not real, great shot!

Could be accomplished with waterproof housing for your camera or a glass wall at an aquarium. I'm going to guess REAL because it looks so unreal.

fake

This looks real but I am guessing photoshopped because that is a lot of fish to have crammed in one little part of the pond. =) Almost like sardines...

Fake :-)

Nice editing! I really like the colors and concept. I'm guessing it's not real. Top 5 ;)

Perfectly shot and executed. This is one for the books. Reminds me of Three Worlds by Escher. I definitely believe there is some compositing going on here, but it's very unique and very well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/17/2011 06:39:51 PM
Not real, probably.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

shopped? Love the idea, great work
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Brilliant image....has a real look to it and fake look to it. In my opinion that is exactly what this challenge is all about. Love it, and curious to see which one it is at roll-over. I do hope you tell the details.

I am thinking this is definitely expert editing, but what a fine editing job and what a lovely image. I truly adore it! Its also funny how the two images fit together, one so serene while the other is dark and moody. Top marks from me.

Love the idea. Surface bubble on the right is a brilliant touch.
