An Idea Past Its Time

Simple, yet right on the mark for this challenge. It's amazing isn't it, how the Civil War still remains a viable subject 140 years later. There still seems to be an article or two in our local paper every week, mostly from a historical context (Central Virginia). The blown out sky is going to wreak havoc on your score. Good luck.

Wonderfully done. Clever idea. Desat works perfect in this scenario. The portrait is right on the mark with the technical details. Congrats!

Very clever. Well done overall. Did you try taking this with a polarizer to eliminate/reduce the reflections - just to see what it looked like? I ask because I find myself drawn to the reflection more than RoboDog. Just an observation. Good luck in the challenge.

Cool photo. Love the color tones, but I'm missing the connection to the challenge. I'll have to come back after the challenge...hopefully it will be clarified then. Good luck.

Great way to take advantage of that wonderful sky! Many times I'll see a sky develop like that and not have a subject to put with it. Clever/cute idea. Good luck.

I'm not sure what's funnier, the guy's in skirts, or the roman soldier? :D This is a fun image, too bad the background is so cluttered. Good luck in the challenge.

One is for hunting, the other for communicating - neither one is displayed in a current context for the item (which would make the other seem more out of place).
