I dedicate this picture to Mari.

I really love this shot.
It's not perfect, of course, but I'm very happy about it.

The title is taken from the famous tune of Miles Davis's masterpiece "Kind of Blue".
But yeah... it's kind of lilac, yellow, brown... definitely not blue ;-)

Hasta la vista

I love this one !!! The beautiful color contrast of the fan and the guitar is great !!! The fan blades definately capture the texture ... coupled with the guitar captures the Famenco beautifully !! Very artistically done !!!

I love how you've taken two different objects and completed the circle. I think I would place the fan at an angle equal to the strings on the guitar though. Well done.

A fine shot indeed, but my personal preference would have been a shot of the guitar or the fan, the combination didn't seem to work well.

An image that demonstates the subject matter of the challenge in spectacular fashion with excellant DOF and color control. Both a technical and artistic success that more than adequately meets the challenge subject in particular with the color shades. A very worthy contender for top ten honors and a possible ribbon contender.

sorry but I don't get "texture" out of this...

Although I commend you for trying some unique objects, the textures aren't visible here. I'd like to see the grain in the wood at least.

Beautiful juxtaposition! I just wish the edge of the fan was perfectly parallel with the guitar strings.
