Paper sculpture inspired by Marc Joyce in an old Radiovision photography lighting book. Added a black rectangle and a crystal pyramid, with black background. The method of getting the transparent black frame is achieved using two individual flashes and taking away the frame between the flash activations.
PS Work -

crop to square
lots af playing with color balance, selective color
sharpen
levels

At first I did not care for this--it seemed a bit too obvious to use geometric shapes for a square challenge. But it has grown on me so I'm bumping it up.
I like this, well exposed and composed shot. the added bit of color really makes this shot pop! The lines lead you into the shot and overall make this just a pleasure to view. Well done!
Oh wow... this is very clever! The placement of the shapes and the background is brilliant. What did you use for the floor? Top ten for you - good luck!
I have just begun voting, but I am confident this will score really well in the challenge. A truly awesome display of talent in a variety of fields, not the least of which, is photography. This in my humble opinion should ribbon.
Somehow this reminded me to the impossible triangle. So great lines and shapes, and I love the colour object in the corner among all the BW. The only issue is that the lines are not always continuous on the edges of the transparent dark rectangle. The subject shouts for accurate fitting.
If I were a member and I could vote, it would be a 9.99 from me. :-) Good luck!
This is a uniquely interesting photograph. Somehow the color pulls my eye away from the rest of the photo. Perhaps that is your aim. At any rate, I would love it on my wall without the item on the right. The use of the wavy lines is very intriguing and pleasing on the eye.
