That is a great photo Christian.

I'd like to see one more color in it. It looks like a black and white...or am I missing the third color?

Yes! That does it. Just enough color. I like it.

Yeah, that second shot really stacks up well for the challenge.

(ooh that was a bad pun, but I couldn't help it.)

mr peas · Apr-02-2006, 06:49 PM #7

you know what, i think you can crop this to the point where you barely see any black bg areas. i couldnt tell that there was a mirror reflecting the coins at first, but when i finally realized it i thought that was really interesting. also, im not sure if its the jpeg compression or not, but i think you can clean up the noise a little bit if you pass it through NeatImage (http://www.neatimage.net/). but seriously, i think your strong point is the reflection. you can weigh the picture to the left or right and leave some black bg there, but i think focusing a little closer by cropping in leaving out the bg more will definitely make it a stronger image. gl!

cool pic man. what did you use for your reflective surface?

ultravox · Apr-02-2006, 10:16 PM #9

mr peas, yes, yes, yes. I was in a hurry. About the noise, on the left side it' only dust... Anyway you are right.
turnip, it's was small glass table

,the black background was the detachable protective mask of a big speaker box.

and the light a small 12 LED torch

. I guess it's not so cool now

.
Thank you both.
p.s I'm running out of time so I guess its final

but when I'll get home if thereis time I'll give it a try.

I missed your final edit until just now looking through the entries. It came out great!!!! Your's is one of the few shots that looks more black and white to me. There are a lot of great entries and lots of different interpretations to the theme. Good luck on yours!!!

ultravox · Apr-03-2006, 06:28 AM #11
