Not only is the floor the ceiling, but people turned away from me now seem to be facing me. I feel a sense of constant, unpredictable menace. Now, that's what I call involving the viewer!

I'm more judicious with favorites now. I don't give favorites to photos that are brilliant and wonderful. I favorite photos that I need to remember, because they do something I've never seen before.

great concept, but you need a context to make the joke complete. put them somewhere you'd imagine gummy people to be. a candy dish? a gummy forest?

actually, my favorite thing about this is that it's NOT silky smooth. I like being able to see the weave of the fabric. If this were all glowy and smooth it would be DPC-kitsch city.

It's tough to make a shot like this interesting, though. You've got to find the right abstract composition, and what makes it "right" cannot be defined. There has to be something surprising about it, or energetic. Do you realize your shadows are very close to depicting a woman in a dress holding (or reaching for) a big heart? That would be one way to make this surprising. There are others as well.

Personally, I'm better at finding surprises in images than putting them into my own... :)

Very cool image! The image is yours. Not meeting DPC's outdated editing rules doesn't detract from it a bit.

This is beautiful! I was cherrypicking from the thumbnails and missed this completely.

very nice. I like how the water leads right to him. your lighting looks almost exactly like mine but I upped the contrast when I converted to black and white.

Even at 6+, this was way underscored. And just so you know, I did NOT recognize you. You might have been on my list of suspects, but I did not know it was you.
