I like how the purposeful and direct stride of the statue contrasts with the more relaxed and meandering passersby. He marches off at a different angle, determined and alone. Great hexagonal backdrop.

An unnatural arrangement - those poor beer cans, won't anyone think of the beer cans?! ;)

I Love You, I Love You NOT!

Great blocks of color in this setup - I would have done it the hard way - actually cut the flowers during the exposure, would not have thought of arranging the pieces on wire to look as if they were flung there by the cutting gestures. You accomplished not just a sense of motion, but of real spite-driven *action* - I can see her in my mind's eye, snip, snip, SNIP!

Now here I was thinking you had somehow managed the shot upside down! Great idea for the cork explosion, I wonder if using something a bit foamy would have provided more contrast - but still a great idea for adding a kick of motion to the traditional still life.

The Hypnotic Illusion of Movement in Time

If I watch that swinging pendulum long enough, the present scene reflected in the crystal ball may alter to show the future, and all the while I have tokens of the past within view to ground me - it's like some ritual for evoking second sight. Nice tight composition.

Outstanding effort, it really paid off. Very painterly, kinda Renaissance. :) Congratulations!

Apparently curiosity doesn't kill, it just gets you posted in the blur thread! :) Great funhouse mirror effect, graininess suits the shot well.

I just like this, a lot. I'll come back and say more if I can figure out why. :)

Ahhh! I gave this a 9! Thought it was a great atypical silhouette shot, with backlit and shadow silhouettes all in one go.
