I do feel as if I were going to be crushed! However, I wish hat you had horizontally flipped the image- when I look at it the first thing I see is BLACK.
very interesting composition. it took me a moment to realize the object in the background the person attached to the shoe. more dof towards the back would have been better here.
Great idea, and brillant use of DOF, but I feel a fisheye lens would have been the correct lens to achieve this shots full potential, since the image is a little too reliant on the title for it's strength. 8
Nice idea and pretty well executed, I think I would have liked it slightly more if the proportions were more 50/50, I mean the sole the left 50% of the frame and the person the right 50% of the frame. One of the better shots in the challenge, mainly because of orignality and I gave it a 7.
... perhaps, but right before the ant dies, they get to see a great abstract! This is possibly not going to win a ribbon on this site where "calendar shots" usually dominate the winning, but this is as intriguing a minimal abstract as I have seen for a long time. The framing is bold, creative and perfectly conveys the purpose of the shot. No wasted linear motion in this piece, no "busy" areas. The minority area's inclusion of the out of focus chin line reassures us that the owner of this shoe is innocent of his crime. He's not aware he is about to kill a living thing. Even the lens flare top right suggests a point that has the attention of our traveller. The band of splashy blue sky is the real treat for me, however. Without that solid chunk to lift the right side away from the left, the shot is less than what it is .... one of my top ten favorites for this week's challenge. 9.
