 I was waiting for a challenge where I could use my daughters slinky ! There were many angles to shoot it at for different effects but liked this the best as it was the most visually appealing yet simple. My final shot is close to what came from the camera, very minimal post processing.
Resized for DPC
Very Slight tweaks to levels, brightness/contrast, curves. Slight selective colour adj to whites and blacks. USM

I welcome any comments you wish to make !

This is an image that made me say "Wow!" That is because the simplicity, the strong light creates a clearly defined shadow that adds an extra element of interest, and while the photo is color, the lasck of color makes this very interesting. 10.

Nice idea. But, I think I'd like to see this is color, or tritone, because the metal could give some creative lighting possibilities.
