Nice backlighting.....harsh foreground. Is this a tribute to 9-11 or to those corproations now in trouble? 6

Please see my comments on this: //www.dpchallenge.com/image.asp?IMAGE_ID=3775 shot for how I feel about this one, too. Everything I say there applies to this as well. Excellent work, as usual, Arni.

Comment by Gracious:
Good idea, but too much of the area is out of focus.

i like the back and white, it is a strong composition. the shallow depth of field works for me, but i'm sure others have commented unfavorably. if everything was in sharp focus the image would lack depth, imo. i do wish the links had more visible "grit", and thus showed a little more texture. ~mcmruma

Pure texture... also creates a good emotional atmosphere... B/W is perfect for this subject considering the theme.

I love this photo, I give it a 10. Only thing is the title-this photo warrants something a little more for a title. This photo is intriguing. Great job!!

This photo is a very good idea. I think this photo had quite a great potential as well. I think the depth of field in this one could use a little bit of work to improve the overall image. There is a very small plane of focus in this image and it seems that the majority of the subject area here is out of focus. If you go to the LEARN link here on DPC and choose TUTORIALS, there is a GREAT photography tutorial there called "Classical Photo Course" that contains some great information on depth of field and how you can control it... It also shows some great examples of where different levels of depth of field work well.... good luck :) = 7 - jmsetzler

love the limited depth of field and use of black and white..found myself wanting jsut a bit more detail on the chain surface to give it a 10..but a very solid 9 for sure...hokie
