Entry photo for the "Abtract" challenge.

I had photographed a glass rim. Turns out it seems to be a abstract view of human female egg and the tail of one sperm. To me at least, enjoy!

All I did in post edit is convert to black and white, added some tones, unsharped mask, and curves.

Didn't see this when I went throught the challenge pics. I would have given this a straight up 10.

Shoulda got a ribbon. That this image didn't score higher is another of the great mysteries of this site!

Hello and thank you all for your nice comments and votes. This shot was simple one but one of many favs. It made up for for the rust shot....Really the rust shot was lacking due to trying to get this one the best I could. Oh well.

Wonderful! Got a +10 from me.

This is perfect in my opinion. I hope to see this on the main page come midnight tonight. VERY sharp looking. I like the abstractness. it really gives me a feel of depth, I like the black and whiteness. The lit ridge is wonderfully splitting the image in a very interesting way. I like how it's plain on one side, and then has that ball thing on the other. Definately abstract, and definately my favorite this challenge. Good luck in the challenge. ~Heather~

Even though it's so simple, I find myself looking at it over and over. Very nice.

INTERESTING title, great photo!
05/08/2004 09:10:54 AM
Simple design elements.......subtle overalll colour tone and obscure detail is effective for this minimal piece. 9

Very beautifully done. The sharp edge nicely contrasts the smooth surroundings. Like your title too. Very artistic.
05/05/2004 11:49:36 PM
I really like the lines in this photo. Cool lighting too. I don't think it would be as effective in color.
05/04/2004 07:00:31 PM
I can't say that I can see the connection. Good image though.
05/03/2004 09:04:57 PM
Still have no idea what the title refers to, but love the photo. Only complaint is the halo outside the rim, a sharpening artifact?
05/03/2004 06:21:05 PM
I like the mix of sharp and soft focus and the overall simplicity.
Very effective image
05/03/2004 05:12:31 PM
great shot and although i can pretty much tell it's a bowl, the tight DOF and excellent composition make it a winner in my book. good work.
05/03/2004 01:40:10 PM
Nicely done -- Leaves a lot of questions, I think that is good.
05/03/2004 09:09:34 AM
one of my favorites ... 10

I really like the minimalistic approach. Simple, strong image. A bit too depressing atmosphere for me to put on a wall at home.
05/03/2004 12:44:07 AM
The tone is working very well. Excellent abstraction! One of my favs.
05/03/2004 12:43:24 AM
ONe of only two 10s I gave anyone in this challenge. Awesome eye. Great tones.
05/03/2004 12:41:44 AM
Nice shot. Looks like a glass shot from the top. Am I even close?
