Nice shot Kaitlyn.
My first thought was “is that a pixelation issue?” But I guess it could be teeny tiny scales.
The orientation of the scales makes me think of fingerprints. I wonder if they’re unique from individual to individual.
it looks kinda weird bit the same time it is cool wer did u take dis pic at an y did u take it
At first glance it looks like peach slices.
