Excellent Shot! Loved it! I cheated with mine too as a child. I took it apart and then put it back together the right way. I used to drive my big brother crazy doing that. It was so funny. I think that this is just great. I really don't have any suggestions for you. Everything is perfect. Good job.
I used to take a screwdriver and work on my Rubic's cube in the beginning... that would have scored a point higher with me. Still, nice take on the challenge. A more subtle dividing line in the background would have been better but it is very good as is.
I remember doing this in my agony of trying to solve this puzzle. I would show it to my friends and say I completed the Rubix Cube :) Hehehehe. Cool shot. Good use of ROTs and good reflections in this image. 7
i don't know what you're talking about! i've never removed the stickers from a rubiks cube to align all the sides again...
; )
great idea for this challenge, nicely executed.
Very nice concept! Do you use NoiseNinja? Removing the noise would make it a nicer picture. Use of threshold would make the blue in the reflection more visible
I used to peel the stickers off until I discovered that you could just pop the pieces apart and then reassemble the whole thing. Ahh, memories. :) (a well-shot photograph as well, and a creative idea.)
