My maths lesson at my technical university. This is a very clever and funny man. I love his jokes :) He allowed me to take some shots during the lecture. I wonder if anybody will be able to see the fact that if you stare at the figures and not on the background, you will have the impression that they float in the air.
it seems impossible to me that somebody would say "it's off topic", but we'll see :)
Afterall there are lots of regulations/laws in maths. Besides, this is a teacher and he can be seen as a authority to students.

Hello there :) I am glad you liked the picture and I am glad that those who didn't like it, said what's wrong about it.
Greslizzz this is exactly what I was going for. My teacher caught in the act of creating. His hand is dynamic in opposition to mathematics which is static and calm to me :) It took me 3/4 of the lecture to achieve this motion blur:) I had great fun watching your comments that went:
-I like the motion blur
-I don't like the motion blur
-I like the motion blur
-I don't like the motion blur
:)
Some people commented that they see no rules here... so now my explenation :)
Mathematics are abundanat in rules, regulations, restrictions, statements and different laws. So I thought it was a primary expamle of rules. Afterall everybody obeys them - not even knowing about this! Hell, our world we know today requires maths.
Graphicfunk I am so flattered hearing such words :)
Even more flattered hearing such words from a man like you BIG THANKS.
It's all Greek to me, but even I can see a good photograph when I see one. I like that you made it black and white, and I love that there's movement in his hand. Good job and good luck.
This works well as a B&W photo--nice tones, and good composition. However, I really don't feel a connection to "Authority". I think I know where you are headed--that Math is the "root" of all the sciences, but it's a pretty big stretch for me. 5.
this would have been a strong entry in the bw challenge, not so sure about this one. yes, the rules of math are indisputable, but they are unknown by most and easily ignored. a major component of authority is the ability to command respect, and for the purposes of this challenge, you would need to address the ability to enforce the laws, and/or the consequences of not following (for example, a person stretched out on the ground with a large rock next to him: the enforcement of the law of gravity). all the same, i'll score this a 6 and wish you good luck!
