thanks for all your comments folks.
The biggest problem most of you seemed to have was the choice of book, I did vaguely consider a romantic book but chose my java book for the folowing reasons:
-I needed a nice thick book, this was the most appropriate book I could find
-I don't own any romantic books
-I thought it was pretty apt, that me, a lonely single guy at Valentines spends time with programming books rather than reading love poems |

| Great idea to break the filter, I also love Konador's Shadow II entry. I have tried this subject and my experience is that it's not worth to make it tilt a much (because of the round filter having a feeling of rolling away), I would rotate a bit to the left. I would also prefer a bit deeper DOF to get the bottom of the filter sharp as well - and more contrast on the letters. |

| much as I like this trick, it has been overdone now - it seems to be used in every competition these days |

| This is technically a very good picture, and it really meets the challenge. But, I'm only giving you a 6 because IMO this picture is being over exploited on this site. This is not a new idea, it has been done several times before on other challenges. |

I suppose everyone has to try this shot at some point;-)
Nice enough, but its running against some much better and original images. |
|

| Great idea reproducing this marvelous shot with a twist. Exposure and lighting not as good as the orginal, but it is of course still a very good shoot. |

| this shot has been done to death, but I guess this is a different take on the subject, nice shot |

| what a surprising result...quite boring text though...maybe find literature that ties in with the concept |

| ha ha HA! love this, and on a computer science book too ... ha ha even better |

| hehe very nice, though i thought i've seen this same photo with an unbroken lens (maybe that was your picture too !!) |

| Cool and a bit cliche.. first time i've seen a broken heart one though... but why not use a dictionary open to where you can see the definition for "broken", or a romance novel, rather than a java(?) book? |
|

All alone and reading a basic Java programming book? ;^) I like your interpretation of this photographic technique. Was this a sacrificial filter, or already on the way to the trash bin (of course you never really know when garbage-collection is going to get called)?
It's contrived, but should do well. Only thing (really!) that might hold this down some is your choice of textbook. He-he.
Good luck in the challenge. |

| LOL - Saw this on the DPC How did they do that page. Good try though. Will give you a 6 |

| This seems really familiar ... interesting use of a concept used several times before. |

| You do these shots really well..... |

| Very cool effect, would have been better if it wasn't on a programming book! :D |

| ripoff of the romance shot of the ring. |
|
|
|
02/09/2006 08:56:55 AM |
that's a nice effect ;P. how did you bet this idea
*LOL* that book in the background:is it a manual?
good luck for the challenge |

| Cool, but I have seen a very similar shot here twice. |
|

| Nice take on this concept. Might have more impact with a romance novel rather than a text book. |

| reminds me very much of Blue II, still good photo, but not original anymore |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 03:41:15 AM |
| This is beautifully done. However, I would have preferred the ring to be lying on the pages of a romantic love story ("Gone with the Wind" for example)rather than a specialised book. |

| I like it - you did good. Some voters may score you down because they feel this is being over used, or another persons idea stolen....but not me. We all learn from what we experience....you have been creative enough to add a twist. I would have tried to find a better book though....there should be a story within a story here by the words shown through the broken heart. (8) |

a daring attempt as this had been used more than 3 times now :)
nice nonetheless, but wish the focus would have been sharper. 8 |

Let the broken games begin!!!!
I like my picture... It's really easy to spot if you have been following my entries since I started here. It'll be interesting to see how many people recognize it as my picture...
Good times...
(Above posted in "Rollover thread".) I recogonized this lastest in the series right away. I like this series and I like this version. |
