Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is

The blur almost makes it look like someone watering a garden early in the day. The reflection is a giveaway that it is a car though. Tricky shot.

Excellent observation. I wonder if any of us will ever be seeing clearly again thru the viewfinder.
I am guessing that the human is a reflection in a broken window. Very classy observation and waiting for the right moment.

My kind of place. Sweet shot which gets right to the heart of the feeling of wild meadow freedom.

A Spicy Portrait

I feel that more depth of field by using a smaller aperture would have made a difference. The DPC voters seem to like everything being sharp. Another improvment would have been to do something with the lower right corner, where there is something, which I assume is a shoulder strap, that distracts from the primary subject, the lips. A piece of light or dark cloth on the shoulder and up to the side of the face would have eliminated that area, or maybe a little closer in with the camera.
A little makeup (lipstick) for a dash of color and a title to draw attention to the lips, and hint of action, like "Spicy Kiss" may have helped a little too.
I am not exactly sure what you did to get the image, I am guessing that it is your face in a bowl?
It is a great concept shot which just needed for the original to lead to a carefully planned reshoot.
That is the worst that I can do with it. I hope that you are not offended.
Don't take all this too seriously, as I seem to not know what I am doing according to the below 5's on my two current challenge images. : )

Interesting and good macro shot. We have the same type of spiders here in Florida. In this area, they are a little smaller than the size in this image. They look spooky, but I have never heard of one biting anyone.
Welcome to DPC. Have fun, learn, share, and don't worry about what anyone says about your images. You know what pleases you when you shoot, and that is what counts in the end.

Thanks for the rerun. It looks a bit like the "Taz" on a rampage with cool pastel colors.

And,,,, you actually fly this thing?
Just making fun. Good image. It makes me wonder what would happen if I moved some of the switches.

These animals are beautiful to photograph. If only the reflection in the eye was of the trees on the African plains instead of a square building.
I was at Silver Springs a few years ago, maybe 10 years, and I wonder if this is one of the same giraffes that I saw at that time.

Congrats on the ribbon, and on an excellent shot of a difficult subject.
