First off, I want to say that this was one of my favorite shots in the challenge, it shows mastery of photoshop, composition and light.

As far as meeting the challenge, I think you pushed the limits of this one, most people were looking for two or three seperate photos.

Your composition is excellent, the positioning of the road, sky and men is right on.

Your lighting is awesome, good choice on the polarizer, looks middayish which I am sure created a washed out sky without it.

Colors are great, love the contrasting red and blue.

I like the title, suits the image mood well.

An awesome image that may have done better in a different/more suited challenge.

I recently arrived home from an Arizona trip, this brings back fond memories of the beautiful landscape, thank you.

An atypical composition for this challenge. I commend you for thinking outside the box. well done.

Excellent set up. I really have to try a shot like that. Love the groovy line on the left; the way it leads the eye to the horizon . Jacko. 9

Very well taken shot! I get the story told, but I'm not seeing the "split" between your photos (either it's very well hidden or not existant). It's a good trick and if I'm wrong about this, it's a 9 or 10 easy, if I'm right, IMHO you missed the idea of this challenge just a tad. I think you "dropped" the far man into this frame, while not "illegal" for this challenge, it's not exactly the topic. I'm not one to offer up 1s for this difference of opinion, and I'm open to discussion. 7 Rob the Swash

NOt only do the images combine in a unique way, this is an interesting and engaging photograph! 9

A different multi-image composition than the rest. I like the colors...

I'm sure your getting counted off for "only having one image" or "not sticking to the guidelines" but I absolutely love this photo! Awesome use of photoshop, very well done! Your in my top 12. -9-

I wish I could see him one more time back up the road a ways. Maybe sitting down would have been neat. Good job though. Love the colors and the sky.

Very nice image, but I think this does not meet the criteria for a diptych. Very well done, nonetheless.

This photo really stuck with me after viewing the others. There's something very unusual about the way that it clearly shows time passing while the landscape remains static. I like! :)

I understand your dual image concept here, but this doesn't seem to fit the di/triptych theme for me... - setzler

I guess you're going to read that a lot .. nice work but does not meet the challenge to me. "... diptych or a triptych ..... ".
04/28/2003 12:01:42 PM
Nice image, strong composition and subtle composite - I think this one is excellent!
