Comment by HBunch:
I know there was some fuss about this in the forums, however, I don't think it is trying to say what people automatically thought it was suposed to say. I don't think that if you were going to go to such lengths to bash religion (as people thought), that you would have access to a bible of this magnitude and of the objects inside the bible. I'm not a religious person myself, so I can't tell what passages it's opened up to, nor could I begin to understand them. This is a technically well done photo, and THAT is what I'm judging on here. I love the angle and the lighting really creates a mood. Overall, I think you have created a technically well done, nice to look at shot. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~

Comment by janfries:
composition, lighting, focus OK. Nothing outstanding here. Weak interpretation of the challenge. IMO, the picture would have been better if a particular verse that you found especially worthless would have been in focus so we could read it.

Comment by Sonifo:
Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and He will say: Here I am.

If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing fingers and malicious talk,

and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.
The Lord will guide you always; He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.

Isaiah 58;9-11
Just thought I would write what I got out of the photo. I don't think you ment what the photo is getting at. I think it is what some people think of the Lords Word. You on the other hand are an avid reader. I can tell because of the personal card and bookmark. Keep reading. It is good for the soul. Good way to spread the word as well. I give you a 6, because the lighting and the red bookmark is way to bright. It takes my eyes away from the subject. :)

You must have like 1000 comments for this photo. I love the dark side of photography. Enough of the flowers and kid photos bring on the controversy. I like it. 8. byetko.

If you see the Bible as garbage, you are wrong. However, that thought aside, the composition doesn't make sense here. There's also a lot of glare. I'm struggling with the temptation to vote it down because of the implications, but I'm trying to be fair. 5 nards656
