Oh my gawd, this is totally hilarious! Fantastic idea, and very well executed. IMHO, this should have won the blue ribbon.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Not only is this image executed to perfection, but it manages to lift my spirits every single time I look at it... which is often.

Very well done.

Sherpets Perspective

I thought this was Sherpets! Good job. The colors are vibrant with the red nicely contrasting. The only thing I could find to improve it would be somehow eliminating that piece of open space in the bottom center. Fill the whole crop with just the plant.

Complementary color always work better. Good composition too. 9

I remember seeing this one in your portfolio before the challenge. Liked it then, still like it. Love the red curves - creates a nice flow to the picture. What I really like is that Sherpet's pictures influenced you to look at this plant differently - that's pretty cool!

You scumbag! How dare you hijack Aimee's idea! :-)

Seriously, though, this is very funny and well done. I like the stark white background and I actually like the border, too. I'm not always fond of borders, but I suspect this wouldn't work without it.

You stole your wife's idea?? Heh. Good story, though - I always enjoy reading the stories behind your pictures.

Such an intense expression. You'd think he was thinking about whether defish should be allowed under basic editing rules:)

I love the depth of this shot as the perspective draws me right into the center of this plant. The complementary colors are winning too, as is the focus and hint of DoF. The title is a clever turn...both in reference to Sherpet's well-known style and the double entendre evident in the use of the word "perspective". There is also a kind of rhythm in the curvature of the leaves and the way they relate to each other. I can't think of any way to improve upon it.

Didn't one of the band members recently pass? Hence the title? The triangle against the circle is effective. Nice colour.
