How great is this photo.
It is a great inspiration to make the most of what is around you with a little imagination added in.

I have a thing for clotheslines, so this was right up there in my book. Congrats!

Congratulations on the ribbon, Ben!

I love the angle of the line and the perspective it was taken from. It wasn't the most creative shots of the entries but, I'm sure that it took you quite a bit to set it up. How many cars stopped to look and how many neighbors labelled you as "nuts"? *grin*

Creative! Creative! I like this. I could never think of pajamas on clothslines...

:D

Great colours and angle, knew this would be top three as soon as I saw it. Congratulations on the red, Ben.

I like the abstractness of it all. 8

There were a lot of images like this one in the challenge, but i like this one the best. The diagonal is very strong visually. I only wish the cloud in the upper right wasn't there. It's a little distracting but there's noting you can do about that in basic editing. Love the overall gradient of the sky. It was captured really nicely. Great colors. :) Hey did you ever consider rotating it 180 degrees? I kind of like it that way. But your perspecttive is great.

good idea the pajamas facing upwards
10/01/2008 02:36:36 AM
Oh, that is beautiful. So colorful, and I love the composition. I tried to get a clothesline shot, but couldn't get free of trees, rooves, antennas, no matter how hard I tried. It was never going to measure up to this anyway.
