Surreal Ironing

Comment by Kavey:
I thought I had seen something like this recently in Arni's body of work but I can no longer find it. Certainly a surreal image though lighting is a little grey and dull. I think it could be lifted by being taken at a time when the light was better.

my favorite part of this is that you're ironing with a tea kettle. I looked at this photo several times before even realizing this. Not only are you out in the middle of nowhere with your ironing board and cheerios, but you're using a tea kettle! Very creative attention to detail.

The hillsides look really sharp and the sky looks good, too.

Comment by Beagleboy:
I find you cropped this mage too tightly on the bottom of the hills/mountains, causing that you almost don't have any foreground. In other words... too much sky.

Interesting idea. I'm not too fond of reshoots for challenges, but i must say, this is borderline creepy ;) The composition is very interesting and the DOF makes for a strange atmosphere, which i like very much. I would've wished for a tiny bit more sharpness tho. Nice work! 7

The mountain in this photo is absolutely gorgeous - the contrasts of b+w are so powerful. For me, that dark part of the sky is so large, though, that it competes with the mountain in this composition. Perhaps cropping the top 1/4 of the way down would have strengthened it. All in all, your pic is one of my favorites of the challenge.
