Tacked Memories

I used the magnifying glass trick in a lot of my earlier photos. I think it's in the tutorial I wrote for DPC too. Glad to see it works for other people as well.
What I really like about this shot is how the photos really are nothing more than a background to the tack. The Focus on the tack is wonderful and the DOF really helps that to stand out and be something more than 'just a photo of a tack'.
Lighting is great, no bright spots or distracting shadows. I like the angle you chose for this. It's not directly head on, but not a straight side photo either. Nice in-between.
Interesting to look at, technically well done. The only nit-pick I would have is that you DID stab the guy in the head. Maybe a different photo there might be a little less weird, but still an alright shot.

Great photo. I'd like to know how you got the background so nicely washed out.

I think the conversion of this image is excellent. But, I hate all the white. A little more detail in the background would have gotten you a 10. 9 from me on an excellent image. Good luck!

This is an awesome shot. The overexposure works great for this challenge, and definatly draws the eye to your subject. I like the use of black and whit, and the posture you've captured him in.

works well - i like it therefore i'll give it a good mark. It probably is minimalism in some sense
