magnum opus

Color (processing?) will put off some people. I find it forces one to consider this more as an abstract focused on shapes, particularly the parallel ones of the foreground headstone and the opening in the memorial in the center BG.

I like that network of membranes you left in the middle.

Is that somewhat near the Maritime Museum? I like how you can still see the vertical cables even though the bridge is soft and backlit.

Good to see you around! I was just wondering the other day if you were still submitting here, but hadn't gotten around to checking yet.

Thanks for all the comments, although I assure you that obscuring her head was distinctly on purpose : )
See this thread on Bridge photos for more details.

Your photos always make you look younger than you write : )

Great lighting for a night shot, I like the BG too.

I hope you've had a tetanus shot in the last few years too, although by now it'd be too late.

I trust you're not setting a new bar for effort required to win a ribbon! A pretty powerful shot with a theme and composition similar to one I did, but much better done.

LOL -- thanks for the tip! I like the tone range -- really focus on their faces.

Thanks! -- for a change it seems a lot of people felt disposed towards humor : )

I'd actually had this idea in mind for a long time (months) but, as usual, had to scramble at the last minute to find the scale and get the shot in. (Lack of) focus on the scale I think is due to DOF issues, as I was most concerned with the light/focus on the garlic itself (pretty good, I thought); plus, the scale is pretty ugly in color.

And I have this other idea for the next time we have a "Light" -related challenge ... of course I forgot to use it this time : )
