The chicken's POV
by purpleflutterby13

Comment:
For some reason, I keep thinking of the old "I feel like chicken tonight" commercials, with the dancing chicken in the oven. Bizarre stuff. Detail is sharp throughout the picture, giving a nice context to the "peeking in" shot, and the fork make a nice framing element. The only distraction is in the upper right, which might be a temperature gauge.

Fork it Over...and over....over....

I like the idea, but the focus is too soft. I think if you tightened the crop a bit on the top and bottom, it'd make the line of forks appear endless; the gap in the upper right is a bit distracting.

Almost looks like a brownsm infrared shot, though the sky here is blue. All of the color drained from the plants and leaves is a very pleasing effect. Well done.

Tracks disappearing into the water, for the Sea Train to take you to the distant mountains.. The picture tells a story itself, and is one of my favorites.

I like the dark tone of this shot, and how the flowers in the back just peek out from nothingness (is that a word?). The one in the upper left could be a bit sharper; it seems much softer than the rest.

I like this one more than your actual Trees entry. Granted, the cars in the parking lot are a little distracting, but the upside-down perspective of the background, framed so nicely by the blurred bare trees, really draws me into the picture. Maybe if your timing was *really* good, you could drop the ball in front of the camera, and catch it as it passed in front of the lens, or set the ball on a pad (or something) to act as a base.

I do like this one better. The streakiness of the light (and its reflection on the violin) make the picture vibrant, conveying a sense of action not otherwise obvious.

Setting your hand on fire is probably a bad thing in the long run.

Spectacular! I'm sure you'll get all kinds of comments about how well everything is lit.. The marina in the foreground provides a depth often lacking in lightning captures.

The lone (rock?, person? sea-monster?) on the beach, watching the waves, grey skies.. I thought "solitude" before I read the title.

I get the sense, maybe from the angle of the wings, that the bug is about to take off. The detail in those wings is very sharp, and nicely lit; they look like shattered windows.
