Added post challenge: Yikes. Talk about your all time backfires! I'll rack this one up to a learning experience!
Anyway, to anyone who's curious as to why I shot this, I was attempting to create an image with strong visual lines using a very spartan composition. The hope was for the viewer to focus on the line created by the two shells and the dog food nugget (yep, that's what that is) between them, and another line from the top corner with the money to the nearest shell. To me, it created a strong line forming a 140 degree angle (or so). And that, I thought, was the definition of "implied line."
Yea. Whatever. :-)
