I gave this a 7 as I felt it was beautifully done. Glad to see you're true to yourself when entering challenges too.

Originally posted by snaffles: out of focus, badly lit, subject looks like he'd rather be elsewhere.

You really ought to consider ticking this quoted comment as helpful, Anita. It's a perfect (though unconscious, I grant you) appreciation of the photograph isn't it? Out of focus, badly lit and rather be elsewhere are all surely the very point of your Ode to Eleven.

It's a splendid, three-dimensional picture, a picture with some purpose, just as the quoted commenter has pointed out.

I couldn't figure out how you kept the tree in focus but everything else was blurry. I just read your explaination. You did a fantastic job with this and it should have scored much higher in my opinion. I gave it an 8. Amazing shot.

I think you made an excellent choice. Eerily fascinating image. I hope to take more risks with my 2012 entries. I think this one paid off for you.
