Great work, Paula! And no… I definitely don’t think using a snoot is cheating! 😄 The challenge was all about using space creatively, and you’ve shown there’s more than one way to achieve that. I particularly like the simplicity of these images — the black background removes every distraction and lets the subjects completely own the frame. Your pipefish is my favourite, and I agree that a little more breathing room in front of it would make it even stronger. Thank you for another thoughtful contribution!
