Nice idea. Is that a fire hazard? :P

This is my first serious entry on DPC (my previous 'sacred' entry was intended as a joke) and I'm a little surprised it didn't even make it out of _4_ territory. I really thought more people would be able to see it, as posthumous commented, with a unique sense of "false perspective". I am a string player and have taken (and seen) countless ordinary pictures of the beautiful lines on these instruments as strangeghost suggests, but I intended to catch something a little deeper in the finish of the instrument against that well defined f-hole.

To score well I supose subtle artistic intent may unfortunately be lost in the voting. I came here to learn the basics of composing and executing shots and, like any art, it's usually best to master the basics and "standard repertoire" before going out on a limb. Still, I like this shot.

Yup, just revisited this after several months and several entries that scored higher. I still like this a great deal and think it was badly under rated, although I understand now why it did not do well in this voting environment.

Yes, this was more of a joke than anything. I was not going to enter this challenge, but this turned up while shooting some water drops. Yes, it's out of focus and I wasn't that happy with it. I just thought it would give a few people a chuckle.

The thing that scares me is that there are some 8,9 & 10 scores here?!? If that was from anyone reading this, thanks, but aside from the focus being off, it really is a tenious tie to the challenge at best(to paraphrase Shadowi6).

Nice composition. The background harmonizes so well too.

Holy Cow! What did you put back there? A grinder? Nice shot.
