Comment:
You had a choice of fifteen balls ... is this some form of subliminal advertising? : )

Nice control/use of the reflections.

Probably has a license at least ... : )

Although I suspect the translation would probably come out closer to "Where to, Mac?"

Comment:
Good choice of a photo to demonstrate the effective use of this technique. Nice parallel lines with the two major trunks. It's possible that moving slightly to the right would show a bit more of the further trunk.

What's In The Box?

Comment:
Good idea and execution. I'd have probably had the title make a reference to the myth of Pandora's Box.

"On the outside, looking in," sounds like how a hitter might explain taking a called third strike ... : )

Nice action capture.

Four Windows and a Thumb
by GeneralE

Comment:

Originally posted by train: I dont get the title I can clearly see 5 windows and if that is a thumb you could have cropped it off

I titled it that way because the fifth window was off on a separate part of the building, similar to the way four fingers are clustered together and the thumb is off a bit to the side.

I thought about cropping the foreground, but I wanted to experiement with simulating a shallow DOF look instead.

Wow, what a nice variety of comments! I knew a lot of people would hate this, but it's nice to see a sprinkling of the others as well.

While agree this was highly processed, I'm not sure it's really over-processed, considering what I was starting with:


Re-sized original capture.

The editing steps are listed in the Photographer's Comments area above.

Nice alignment, especially to fit the window between columns.
