Ok, NOW I get it! Right, right? The point is probably lost on most non-US people (like me - and I consider myself somewhat politically astute, but I missed this one).

Not sure where the right angles are in this shot?

Sorry, I did not see how this met the challenge.

wouldn't that be "wrong angles"

Great composition. With some of the pins of older presidents it lends itself to monochrome or b&w. Great details in the flag. Almost feel the texture of the fabric.

Very sharp and good colour. It's quite busy too. I am affraid it doesn't have much to to with the proposed challenge though, but you might have meant it as a humor.

Sorry, but I don't see a lot of right angles giving strength to this image suggestive of the U.S. political right. The fabric has a lot of them, but they aren't perceived as right angles by the eye. The image needs more depth of field to get all the buttons in focus, and more care with the lighting is needed; small specular highlights such as that on the SRT button are fine, but the glare on some of the other buttons is distracting.

I like your approach on the challenge. I find the strong reflections on the buttons disturbing though and Nixon seems to be out of focus :)

Interesting interputation... Couldn't find any Thurman buttons?

I love the idea. If you could have used an indirect flash that would have helped a lot. The reflection on several of the buttons is distracting. Nice color on the flag in the foreground.

as discussed in the forum the contest was clear about geometrical right angles
08/06/2003 01:54:00 AM
interesting symbolic idea...

Great sense of humor here. The glares are a little distracting, but understandable. Hope you don't get nailed too badly for the "adventure." I like it.
