I don't think the tilted perspective helps.

They really went for the pretty colors in this challenge didn't they. I love this picture. I did one that was very similar for the Grain challenge. [thumb]//www.dpchallenge.com/image.php?IMAGE_ID=248482[/thumb] I just love the light, shadow, and lines you get in stairwells.

Comment by Jutilda:
I just stumbled across this in your portfolio. Wow - I really like so many things about it. Of course the image really grabs you with the cool blue tones, but I think it's the hands. They are so telling and I love their softness - like one of someone relatively young. But I think what I love most is how you tied this photo into the title - one of Chopin's most beautiful and well recognized pieces. The lighting in combination with the filter is most effective and creates a mood of mystery and a sense of incognito, as we can only see the midriff and her hands. Nice!!!

This had setzler written all over it! Masterful portraiture well enhanced by the grain, even if photos from that era weren't actually grainy. :)

Glad to see this one do so well, John. One of my highest votes. Classic, timeless, lovely to contemplate. I'd have expected to see a ribbon on this, myself...

This image is expertly captured and carries the essence of this challenge. I am besides myself that it was not honored by a ribbon. By far, the strongest study without pretense of presentation. It is honest and expertly composed with the best use of grain.

One of the most outstanding studies wherein the grain is used to full advatange to enhance what already is an outstanding image. Returning for final bump.
