Challenge:
I admit that I didn't see the connection to time when I voted on this picture, but after reading the comments I now see the connection. Very creative and neat idea. I remember those days fondly.. Unfortunately I've found it doesn't pay to be too creative around here.
Composition/Creativity:
I'm not sure what to say here. The composition feels jumbled and messy, but I have a feeling that's caused by the shadows.
Technical/Post-Processing:
This is where this photo lets me down. The flash is far too harsh. Try more light without the flash nexttime!
Overall:
Not a strong/apparent enough reference to time. Flash. Good idea and great colors though!
???? Good color and focus on most of the paper. Flash(?) shadows seem a bit harsh and the lighting on the right edge yellow paper is very harsh. Challenge - without the title, I wouldn't see any connection, with the title, I just don't understand the connection (my bad). 5 Swash
I get it! A paper chain is something that people (mostly kids) make around the holidays to count down the days till Christmas. On Dec 1st they make a paper chain using 25 "rings" and each day, they tear a ring off so they'll know how many days until Christmas; thus, counting down the days(time). (I looked it up on google.)
This image holds a good deal of 'interest' value for its color and absract nature, but I am lost on the interpretation of 'time' in this photo... - setzler
