Challenge: Where's Waldo? II (Basic Editing II)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S7000
Location: Kamloops, B.C.
Date: Jan 4, 2005
Aperture: f3
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/60 sec
Galleries: Abstract, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Jan 4, 2005

 Megan exploring artwork in her room (drawn by her mother btw). I like it because the open hand resembles one of the butterflies/flying insects. Not really hard to spot the "Where's Waldo" aspect, true, but I think a nice entry. A good, hopefully, 5.5

The vignetting is due to the fact that I couldn't set up the camera to have light hit the picture full on.. unfortunately.. due to the arrangement of the room the artwork is hanging in. (I'm sure I'll get comments on it.)

Post-processing was just grayscaling, auto-levels, and USM.

I like the art and the hand. It however leads me to wonder if this art was a flooring, and the child/baby crawling through the pattern (shot from above or a high angle) what effect it would have. It would be somewhat surreal.

Great artwork in the background and clever take on the challenge. I like the fact that you chose black and white. I would like to see it cropped to that the little hand is more towards the bottom right corner

I was kind of confused by the hand at first unti l re-read the title.

Simple ideas are often the best as shown here.

paint that hand black, put it in that circle in the lower right, and boost your white levels and I'd love it and give you a 10. Cool idea with the patterns, and a cute hand. 7

I don't think this meets the challenge with just a hand... But that might just be my oppinion.
