Drawing Hands (after M.C.Escher)

I'm really curious to see how you did this. I thought of a similar idea, but couldn't think of the "trick" of photographing it. This is well done, and quite convincing. I'm guessing that the "cuffs" are on pieces of card and worn on your/your model's wrists. Very clever and maybe the best in challenge (though I haven't seen them all yet).

Congrats from your 135th place neighbor... good rhythm and pattern in this shot. Maybe it would be a bit more dramatic if the lighting were off to the side a bit. I think the comment about the banana isn't a bad one, perhaps another something in the photo to contrast the background.

ETA: also... I agree with you... shoot for challenges. Make a goal of a certain number per month---you'll see your photography improve quite a bit. I'm no pro, but I've gotten much better than when I started!

from your 135th neighbor.... well, finished in the top half! For some reason, your image is blocked due to content... maybe because you say nude in the description...no idea.

This is a nice shot. Holgas are so touch and go--I've been playing w/ one recently. Lucky if you can get one or two you are really happy with on a roll.

I wish I could afford a fish eye. really cool shot. It becomes esher-esque. It would be fun to Photoshop some upside down people under the stairs.

I like the abstract motion blur--I can still totally sense what is going on... I just wish it had more contrast--I think you could pull a lot more out of this image.

Nice Catch!

composition and clarity are great... your BG blown highlights are pretty distracting... I know these are fleeting shots, but maybe somebody to cast a shadow on your right?

the light is pretty harsh, but I do like that not a single hoof is touching the ground.
