Like many of the wonderful entries, this image plays with time. Black and white will usually feel older. It's a beautiful scene, magical is this light. Admittedly, I'm drawn to the color version, but must keep in mind that the black and white version in actuality, assuming a real shift in time, was also in color. It's getting confusing. But it's fun to imagine having such a choice, hopefully not irrevocable. And, oh, did I mention that this photo is really beautiful?
One of three co-favorites.

I love the clever use of complementary colors, really makes the pie stand out from the background. Plus, some surrealism is always a good thing in my book :) Congrats on the ribbon!

Originally posted by streetpigeon: Seemingly disparate elements, but they grew on me as I kept gazing. I like the cleanliness of the overall image. The statue of pi might be excessive, but that's just subjective. The knife, as it blurs into the sky, is like a bridge to the infinite, or something. And the little pie is that tantalizing decimal point trumpeting the wild continuation. Interesting, otherworldly take on the challenge.

thought this would get the blue or the red .. it really was a toss-up for me ..
but that was before i fully grasped Christophe's inspired message in his photo .. which i did after reading his notes ..
and then of course Mark's was awesome as well .. there were so many in the top 10 that were fantastic .. really brought out the creativity this challenge . .

i loved this so much in voting .. and look at that .. i was your only 10 .. !! ..
loving Rich's comment .. !! .. he said what i would have liked to but lacked the words .. :)
