 Red ribbon on red tissue paper on a light table. Light from window is the only other light.

Converted from Raw, cropped, levels, curves, small color adjustments, sharpened, NN, save for web.

Another artistic attempt that pleases me. Will anyone else like this one, or am I headed for a score of 4?

Congratulations on your top 30 finish. This really is an awsome picture. But I am biased since my favorite color is red.

Really like this macro abstract. The red tones are luscious and the lines.. a nicely composed shot.

A very nice abstract. Good use of DOF to add interest. Good luck in the challenge.

Great lighting and dof. Took me a while to figure out that it's ribbon. Simple and effective.

I LOVE IT!!!!!
The way it makes u feel like you want to crawl in, or slide in loop-d-loops! My eye was directed toward the tippy-top, and I followed it as far as I could. Lovely job! The lighting is great, and the deep rich color of the red is....uh....breathtaking! I enjoy it! It is so......FUN! I really hope it's doing well, cause if its not, I'm gonna be disapointed! They all are probably gonna be jealous!!!! I'm not! Lovely photo. 10! 10! 10!!! A thousand times 10!!!!!!!!!

FABULOUS!! Very red :) I love the red carpet and the red ribbon. Kudos on a fabulous idea and execution! The only thing I could see that might make this a bit more on the grabby side is a deeper depth of field so that every curl of the ribbon were in focus. I see this doing well :) Good Luck! NVJC.

Red is my favorite color. Ilove this photo. Great composition and shallow DOF. Lighting is very good it has this glow. It is neat how your eyes start from the top left and wind down into the hole of the ribbon. Hope this does well. I love the fact that it is not a flower, pretty girl or a lot of skin.
