Comment by Dogman:
Like I've stated in afew comments. I see where your coming from but I don't get an impression of fear. I would have liked to of seen a person in the image looking worried, concerned. Then I would be able to connect better.IMHO. Dogman ;]

Comment by Gene L.:
I'm sorry, but I just don't get it. As for the technical merit, I find the lights distractive and the plane rather static. The plane is in focus, but too far off to make the tail readable or the subject very interesting.

VP or lower plane. Wow, I know you couldn't control the lighting, but the bright light in front of the wing really hurts this photo. 6 Swash

Comment by jmsetzler:
Congratulations on being able to get a photo of this plane :) I'm having a difficult time deciding where the fear factor is in this photo... fear of flying maybe? Fear of government? Fear of barbed wire fences? Since the title in this photo doesn't tell me what the fear factor is, maybe you cand send me a pm and let me know if you like... I am just unable to determine what you are trying to put forth with this photo... = 4 - jmsetzler

REVISION: I'm not holding photos to the challenge this week. There are too many that I don't understand. = 5 - jmsetzler

Thanks for all the negative comments... and thanks for the positive ones too.

For those that made mention of color, the color version really sucked. Trust me, its a much better shot in B&W.

Lisa -- Yes, it was taken in a bath tub... on purpose.

indigo997 -- No, its not cropped too tight. You're looking at the edges of the photograph! Out of 35 shots, this was the only one with the entire bottle in the photograph. In all the others, the bottle kept floating out of view before I could hit the shutter ;)

lisae -- yes, its supposed to be low contrast. Its "transparent". Thanks.

sjgleah -- transparency was the challenge.

Very nice photo. I like how the sun light reflects in the water. Maybe a litte lesser DOF would be better. Some parts e.g. the water in the bottom right corner and the top of the bottle are blurred. But that's the opposite of the crystal clearness which the photo shows (as far as I see it).
