Nothing like an appreciation for everyone's favorite surrealist .. well I'm a Magritte fan myself but this is a nice homage to Dali - it looks like a fram from a film - grainy and a slight motion blue.

Not a fan of horror movies, but this shot certainly got that initial response... cringe! I might just have to randomly click the numbers since I don't want to look back at the screen! Ewww!

Hmm - There are parts of this that are just wonderful! The grain, of course. The 50s feel, the boy, the hand shadow, the house, the sun, his shirt with the piping. THE LINES, straight and receding on the house, diagonal shadows, angles pose of the boy. Here's what I don't like: I have a "what is it? mind. Things I can't identify are distractions for me. What has he got in his other hand? I'd be happier if you cropped it. What are the odd things hanging on the house?

Wonderful!! At first when the image began to load, I saw only the grain at the top of the house. I thought it was going to be a normal boring grainy snapshot. What a surprise I was in for. This is an image that I could spend a lot of time with. The title is perfect. Love all the stripes and other forms that the shadows make. My first 10 after 403 votes.

Very good. It looks like an old film photo. I like the placement of the child in the photo arrangement.

I LOVE this image! I love the quirkiness and the shadows...I am not sure how the voters will treat this or if they will see it for what it is, but I love this 9
