Been a while since I've posted for feedback here, but that's usually because I'm too lazy to have more than one shot as an option. :deal

I was originally going to use this...

1

Then came up with a couple variations of this...

2

Until someone I suggested all three variations together presented a better story...

And now I'm just stuck...

...and using an inordinate amount of ellipses...

But the ellipsis is THE single most valuable form of punctuation ... ever... :D
Moving right along.

I think both the filmstrips are pretty neat - the three-fer is downright creepy, but very effective (is that your Poe streak coming out again?!). I think, ultimately, that's the version I prefer - the "surprise" at the end of it suddenly breaking the repetition is pretty way cool, actually :)

Are you EVER truly at a loss for a brilliant idea? I'm beginning to doubt it... :clap:clap

Thanks, diva. :D The three-fer fascinates me, too. I only wish that was actually my idea. It was a brilliant suggestion by another Dgrinner. :bow

I think my fav individual photo of the set is your "evil eye" at the end. It just cracks me up! Though I do like your tomatoes but feel bad for the one in the middle.

What I think you should enter: the last set with aaaall the photos.

(and I never knew "..." was called ellipses! I always called it "dot dot dot". The things I learn on this forum astound me again!)

Go get 'em!

Oh I dunno, the Rotten Tomatoes are pretty brilliant too!

Hee! It gives me a giggle, too. I ended up using just that frame for my daily today :D:

Nah, I just share your warped sense of humour. I still want to see that reshot with the shadow of the celery STALKer over them.... :D

I thought the tomato shot was really funny. It definitely made me laugh. The other one is probably more powerful though.

These are great, wonderfully creative! I can't decide between #1 and #3.

Kerry...one could interpret these as being paranoia....but then...I see them as being brilliant!:D

They both can evoke an emotion...which is great. Both on a different level. The tomatos being an easier emotion for me than the knife in the back which hurts just to look at it (that is ment for a compliment...very moving)!

I have a hard time to choosing between 1 and 3 also...with 3 having a stronger emotion for me.

I think if #2 had a blood splater frame (second to the last frame) it would work better. I'd have to go with #1.

LOL that last one reminds me of a movie by Alfred Hitchcock..PSYCHO.

Love the Tomatoes...Don't you ever feel like that tomatoe....surrounded by people, and never knowing who your friends are??
