 My understanding of the movie "The Matrix" is what we precieve as real isn't really real...or something like that.

I guess what I'm trying to portary in this photo is the replica gun being a representation of the robots false world created for the humans since a replica gun is basically a fake, but being realistic in looks and feel, i.e. The Matrix.

If you got confused reading this imagine what was going through my head writing it.

The End.

I totally agree with e301. I'm surprised that it didn't do better. It was a great shot and I had given it a 10.

The over exposure looks nice here, good subject for the challenge. Just personal preference but I think the 1 standing bullet looks out of place, just me though.
