Freedom is never free

Good job integrating the reflected flags into the composition -- too bad they weren't a couple of feet farther apart so they'd clear the left column of names.

Birds Eye View of Manhattan

Comment:
I'd have called it "Wait! Don't Jump"

I like how the bird's outline shows so well against the buildings. I'd consider taking a little off the left, to just take off the second corner of the ledge. I think the corner and the "leaning" light-colored buildings behind it pull attention away from the subject.

I did a quick conversion to a black and cyan duotone, which you can see here. Not intended as a "final" version, but to get the idea of how it would look ....

Like the exposure and detail (esp. reflection) a lot, but the color seems a little odd to me (see thread on color-blindness). If I'd been lucky or good enough to have taken this, I'd probably experiment with color-shifting, duotone, or B+W.

Time in Memorial
by Imagineer

Comment:
Interesting that this and K-Rob's shot The Pier are displayed next to each other, because I couldn't help but look at your flat background and think about dropping a faded New York skyline into that space, and there was the source image right next to it.

It's a great idea, good compositionand exposure, cool clock. The numbers are "stacked" LEDs? I have a very primitive calculator made with numbers like that.

Are we there yet?

As I mentioned in the thread about this shot, maybe you'd have been better off leaving out the title, forcing people to figure out "how does this represent repetition?" I think most people (not just parents) would get it then -- it IS a very cliché phrase.

Or if you're going all-out for humor and not worrying about the score (as you said in your comments), have her hold up a little sign with the caption on it ... then no one could say the photo didn't "speak for itself."

Flower, pet, kid, macro, Jefferson Memorial ... work 'em into any challenge!

It's one of my favorite buildings there too -- someday I hope to see it in person. Nice job, as usual.

Thanks, everyone! With 10 out of 14 commenters requesting it, I had no choice but to upload a re-cropped version for your evaluation. Should I make a printable file of this?
