There are some things money can't buy, for everything else, there's photography :)
Inspiration:
In this image I was trying to convey the strength of education. It is, IMHO, the most powerful instrument one can have at their disposal. Money, fame, objects and even love all come and go, but it is that element of experience/education/enlightenment that will stay with you forever. Open your eyes, and absorb all that we have been blessed with. :)
Technicals:
Laid out the bed sheet on the side of the room, placed all my books from the last three years in a gradation, glasses in the middle, and used one flashlite for illumination.
Post editing: Darken, contrast, GS, RGB, sepia, resize, border.
Thanks,
Salar |

| Nice shot, but the strength is really in the title, not the photo. |

| More light, please. I like the halo the light made on the mat from around the glasses. |

| Excepional lighting technique. Great job of printing. The books are actually soft focus, intentionally I presume, because it works very well, adding a bit of mystery. The title is a bit "cutesy" for me. |

| I saw your possible entries on DTMPower.net prior to this. I like your final submission. Nice focus on the glasses, a little blurry in the background. |

| Cute title, nice photo. Your focus, light and composition are all nice. No real WOW factor but a good entry. Good luck in the challenge. 7 from me. |

| seems like it should be "knowledge accumulated", but there is "strength in knowledge", so i guess it works, but that would have been a much more effective title. nice shot. lose the border. |

| very nice composition. great idea and execution. I think the border should be de-emphasized a bit. |

| Very nice shoot, for a 8 or even more for me... but the "strength" is not in my mind when I watch it... this week this was the difficult point, that's for sure! |
