Fun house gone wild!! This is really well done. I like the coloration and the angular quality of it.

I see what you were trying to do with this shot, but it just doesn't hold my attention much. I don't know if it's because it's kinda flat depth wise and color wise but it doesn't...

I like the distorted perspective here and the way the structure leans opposite to the man. Good shooting angle to emphasize this. Man inside (white shirt) is a bit distracting and makes me wonder what is propping up your subject.

Huh. Crazy! I like it

Strong image. The faint image behind your subject's head is distracting as well as the glow in the upper portion of the door. Luckily they are easily fixed in PS. The large amount of light concrete takes away from the impact. I'd prefer a tighter crop. Otherwise very nice. 6

Has to be a logical explanation... (8)

Great perspective idea, I need a few more glasses of wine to get my eyes working correctly.
Good idea well taken.

Very original! I like it but it could be a tad sharper.

The only possible flaw that I can see with this is the figures visible through the doorway. Perhaps they could have been removed by a little selective darkening.

Good execution on the illusion. I like the interesting building and its rustic"ness" and detail.

This illusion never fails. Now why didn't I think of this before?

very cool. nice lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 04:51:03 PM
haha, thats really cool.
if the guy behind the subject wasn't directly behind him i'd feel this would be a better shot. also a more S-like curve could help.

I think that I have seen this place, great color, good detail.

First Impression: Nice clear representation. Nice shot. It might have been impossable, but a lean into the image might have been better.
Was I fooled? Yes. Strange. Very weird.

I like the model's leaning position without visible support, nice idea.
