Friday Night Bowl-O-Rama

A great collage of ballet and Armageddon. It is unfortunate Don's personal bartender called in sick the day he first commented on this.

a wonderful puzzle. Your decision to lead the viewer's eye to the bike rider makes me think he is, in fact, Glen - a parody of the very sculptures he crafts. The owner of the "fish and chip" joint (where Glen washes beer mugs and spends all his salary playing Buddy Holly music on the jukebox) was kind enough to display this in his shop window. You were sitting there sipping on a beer just as Glen was arriving for work...

eta: OK, second guess... the foreground object is a personalized beer mug and Glen had been sitting across from you drinking beer. You captured him just as he left and prepared to navigate home on his bike... this is like the old game of Myst.

Excellent job of capturing both his strength and frailty. The subtle overlay adds a nice touch.

Ha, the branch is actually sticking out of my monitor - 3D without having to wear those clumsy glasses. I don't think I've seen quite that effect before. Well done!

Either half of this photo is a brilliant photo in itself, the final is even better than the sum of it's parts.

When you captured this you must have wondered if the photo shoot itself could get much better. I would have called it a day.

The perspective you chose makes me feel as if I were part of the "exhibit" and I expect the crowd will soon turn to stare and point at my stone nose or headless body. It's a good thing you enjoy taking this type of photo because you are very good at it.

Beautiful shot! I find it interesting the spaces between the horizontal rails on the bridge seem to have retained more detail (local contrast) compared to outside of the rails. Also the detail (rocks) between the horizontal shadows on the river bank have more relative detail. Also the vertical spaces right next to the darkest trees. Conversely, none of the random shadow patterns have detail next to them. I wonder if that is a quality of the Zoneplate or merely a strange coincidence. I'll have to go back and review some of your other ZP shots. At any rate, I like how it helps to direct the viewers eye towards the bridge in this case.

top of the morning to you!

very nice effect. I think you're about ready to try for that 5.5 DPC shot...
