And do they go well with butter ;)

ahhh its a crab/lobster (in the negative space) looking down and to the left and the title refers to its claws

now i see it but at first i didnt see anything more than a mess

nice one

Thanks, Bug. Not a crab...

I knew it was a lobster when I read the title. I grew up in Westport MA where there are lots of lobster fishermen and knew that bit of trivia. Fun puzzle!

The best part of a "lobeye" is the knuckle joint...yummm It's the joint just down from the claw.

Great image Tom,i saw it right away,very well done. I don't care for lobster,not enough flavour for the work involved. I know everyone says i'm weird cause i don't like lobster.:)

I love negative image puzzles!

When I played Lord of the Rings Online (news flash: Kristen is a nerd), I was in a guild with a bunch of guys from Maine. They were all complete goofballs, so I called them the Mainecompoops. :)

Terrific image, thanks for the puzzle, Tom...and thanks for the news flash Kristen ;)

Thanks everyone. It was fun to create.

Bugaboo: Lobsters are called "bugs" in Maine ;0 Aldege, the Pilgrims and Indians of New England didn;t eat them. They used them as fertilizer.

Crawfish (essentially mini lobsters) are also called Mudbugs. :)

I miss living in Louisiana...I used to know how to make an outstanding etouffee.

Maine lobsters are the sweetest of them all! Loved the puzzle and the comments!

Jota: Need a job? You should go to work for the Maine Lobsterman's Association ;)

I wish I could but I would eat all the lobsters and get fired !

That was a fun solve - LOTS of back-and-forth, which I love, then an image that took a second to pop in. SO recognizable!

Excellent solve and image
