This is a beautiful stray from what you accustomed us with and I salute you for it.
Your imagination runs with a very high speed and sometimes it cannot keep up with its pictorial representation. The storyteller in you has so much to say but he has to keep us on our toes. Keep some secrets also!
For instance, in this film noir scene, a lot of stuff can wait for its second act, so to speak. Our attention is a bit scattered (we cannot keep up with your pace!).
It reminds me of an old French advice: when a woman dresses to go out, before leaving she shall take out one of her pieces of jewlery.
In American terms: less is more (not always though, sometimes less is really, well, less).
I look forward to see your progress Christophe. |

Christophe! The higher resolution version is well worth a look - the dpc sized one loses too much. |

I look at mine and say... "Yep. That's kinda cool." and I press "submit".
You're my abstraction hero!!

Wonderful image again Christophe, I really enjoyed looking for all those details as the bubbles, the keyhole, the cat and more. Light is amazing and then I read here you shot in daylight and made it look like night. Didn't even know that is possible LOL. (So much to learn yet). Congrats on a well deserved Red! |

Surreal yet subtle, beautifully blended. This has grown on me and is now one of my ribbon choices. |

Your images are a pleasure to see with attention, lots of little details
love the detail of the keyhole at street level
I think the hand of the lady crossing the street should be behind the lamp post

Lots of interesting things to see in this shot, and the sinking and invisibility of the two in the street look so believable. Well done. I'm not sure the bubbles added much for me, but this was still one of my favorites of the challenge. |

So much to explore in this image... the kitty with the bubbles, the lit keyhole and keys, the mystifying crosswalk, the fish, the liquid sidewalk... WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN!!!?? |

DPC is full of great images, but few excels my imagination like this one. At first I though it was "just another high quality image", but not really my thing. Then I started looking at the details, like the wild cat, the lit-up key hole and the woman's strained facial expression. Suddenly I realised I had made up a story in my head. I really like the unstable linkage between different worlds in that the drawn bubbles take physical form and in the ground "we" walk on losing its. Not sure if it is the same story as whoever made this intended, but mine is one of an community of sunken people, living underground, creatively trying to get a hold on the key to a door that is locked from the other side. A desperate attempt to return to a world where they were not valued to begin with, a world where most people have no substance. This image has taught me one important thing that I will take with me in future ratings, and that is that even though the picture is not really my preferred style I still need to study it, try to imagine the photographer's idea, story and the work it took creating it. A lot of you are probably thinking daahhh! right now, but hey!.. I'm still new at this game. This comment got a lot longer than I intended. Sorry!) :) |
