Tim, I was really impressed with this shot... Everything I have seen that you have submitted here is really great work. I felt sure this one would get a ribbon this week :)
Nicely rotated - when the image is loading slowly it looks like the shadow and the bike are reversed. Maybe get rid of the blur next time? It might remove the feeling of action, but I guess it's personal choice
I like the way the "real" image is in the place the shadow would have normally been. This would be an awesome shot for this week's challenge as well. Great job.
I love this shot. I love the angle, the blacks and whites. It's perfect for this challenge.....heck, even next week's challenge! One of my 10's this week. :)
I probably like this picture more than other people do. I like seeing objects at strange angles almost as if it were a mistake. This could have been a great submission for next weeks challenge. :)
I believe that this is probably my favorite photo this week. I wish I had an *eye* for creativity like this. This photo definitely stands out in this pack as the most creative. The upright and horizontal orientation of the shadow in this shot is perfect for me :) The shadow is leveled out nicely to offer a very high contrast against the road surface, and I love the way the black and white choice accents that contrast. On the technical side of this photo, I don't know how much post processing was done, but assuming that it wasn't a lot, you may have been slightly over exposed... the road surface looks a little 'hot'. Excellent photo! = 10
I love the "illusion" in this that the shadow and its creator have switched places. Great call to turn it the 180. I'm having a hard time defining the element that's niggling at me. Perhaps that it's so bright? Pretty much purely black and white (I recognize that there's a lot of gray -- it's just very light). I wonder if bring up the midtones, making the ground a little darker, would help. Dunno, just my two bits.
I like it! You've given the viewer something to ponder in a way that is entirely out of the box. Very good! This would also have worked well for the next challenge "Shadows."
Should have saved this for this week. Congrats yours is vote 86 of 108 and of the 2 dozen or so B&W attempts it is the only one that is not a gray and gray.
I really like this one---the potrion with the actual bike and riders foot is (to my taste) unnecessary. The shadow is a really strong image on its own--still a great shot.
