OK. I gave this a 4, basically because it met the challenge topic. 4 is my minimum vote for those that meet the topic. I do like the abstract feel, but as a whole I'm not drawn in to the photo. BW was a good choice. As far as processing, the halo around the nickel is too prominent, and it is legal to clone/heal sensor dust in basic.

good idea, just so many distracting reflections on the devil, either include the whole hand or clip it off (off the picture, not off the arm), 5

We have one of our resident programming nerds working on a javascript that will register an electric shock through the mouse for any vote of 3 or less without a comment.

This reminds me of the scene in Spaceballs when Dark Helmet takes the spacecraft to 'ridiculous speed'. :D

I gave this a 4. I see some good creativity and effort in it, but it didn't come off to me with a lot of visual impact or appeal. Unfortunately, that is what most of us look for and rate an entry on. Looks like you did a long exposure and moved the nickel into the frame at some point. I popped it into PaintShop Pro to see some things, and the first thing I found was the histogram is very flat on the light end. This makes the image a bit dark and lacking dynamic range. You can see in this screenshot of my levels dialog, the histogram and the preview of the difference it made.


Some noise reduction and contrast with a high radius unsharp mask gave me this result:

Of course, my quick edit brought out a lot of other visual artifacts, but it showed those aspects that I felt were the main issues with this shot.

This is far from a snapshot, and you are certainly moving in the right direction with this effort.

Hope this helped.

Hi from the CC Club again!!!

Lovely car and you are spot on with your circle.

I think that the first thing that stands out is that I spot the car, then I spot the circle. A tighter crop , the same as you have at the top and bottom would have eliminated this and given it a different POV with interesting diamond patterns.

Your processing is spot on for this, sharp, clean cut lines, good colours. As someone else said " your invisibility cloak is working"

which is true, a lot of times it is hard not to get your reflection in these shots, so kudos for that.

Overall, a good sound shot, just a bit bland.
