I like your composition very much, but there are a couple of things bugging me. One is an out-of-place sense of blurriness about the tank-thing - it may simply be the way it looks, or it may be a processing artefact, but it doesn't seem to belong to the same graphical world as the rest of the composition - especially given such a strong sense of fine detail in the stain itself. Secondly a sense of lens distortion that adds a feeling of precipitousness to the image; I might, myself, have tried a touch of correction on that. But I like the shapes very much. Doesn't quite give me enough - it lacks a real sense of photographic fun, I suppose - to really entrance, but it's many times more interesting/arresting than all these pets, kids and landscapes.

interesting composition. IMHO the brick wall does'nt fit with it. Good try.

This looks like e301 except that he likes to put something transitory in a photo so it feels like he is capturing something. but you and I both know that you captured something here. 10

Beautiful macro. Something about the colors, dark detail, composition give it a slight macabre look (but in a good sense) which really sets it apart.

How does this POSSIBLY get a 6.2477 ??? Beautiful shot, and I am again shocked by the DPC voting crowd.
