This was my favourite, by a mile. Each time I come back there's an brand new aspect to ponder on.

Lovely, and menacing! The perspective makes the shot.

Necessary Evil

Wat 'n pragfoto! Die turbinegebou is sprokiemooi, laat my dink aan 'n rivierboot met daai 2 skoorstene en die refleksie. Vertel my net, hoe kry jy die lug nog so kleurvol teen 13 sekondes?

Sê vir die mense wat kommentaar lewer oor die gebrek aan donnerweer, jy't die plek wat die donnerweer maak afgeneem. hehe.

I keep coming back to this photo. It's a photo all of us (well at least me and one or two other persons), want to have in our "warm glow album". Thank you for sharing it.

Lovely shot. Is there a reason the reflection of the trees' tips were cut off? I would have liked to see the full reflection. The silouette's edges are not tack-sharp, probably because of the very high f-stop used. It is my understanding (I'm no expert) that photo's do get "softer" and one does not gain much DOF with a normal lens with an f-stop of more than 16. However, I do think that the softness works in this photo. As one's eye is immediately drawn to the sun, I didn't like the thick tree trunk running right over the picture, but I do realise you could probably not have done anything about it. (don't you always have an extra explosive device in your back-pocket? he he). Overall the photo relaxes me, and my mind gets all fuzzy and drifts off into nothingness... so it's a very successful picture.

ABSOLUT CHRISTO.

Would have had my vote at 8. So how did you sort out the lighting, then?
Christo's projects were crazy, but probably a lot of fun.

Cool secret watermark.

Absolut Blue

I first only gave a 5, but on commenting decided I like the chaos. I get the feeling that the botle is dissolving into blueness, but also changing the area into blueness. Deep man, deep.

Jack and Watch

Is this an everything- but Absolut ad?. I'm from RSA, and don't drink, so the Jack and watch thing goes straight over my head. Sorry.

Absolutely a Finlandia Cosmopolitan
by libitum

Comment:
I don't see the Absolut product in the photo. Is this therefore an anti-Absolut ad? Perhaps a bit too bland for an ad. (Except if cosmopolitanism is blandness, then it is spot-on.

Smoking Barrel

The smoke looks so nice, I am inspired to try something with smoke. where does one get smoke? Dry ice? The whole bottle also shines nicely from within. It would have been nicer to have the writing more in focus, not that I would be able to manage it.
