I'm not one for abstract-ish photos, but this was done very nicely. with the yellow, in addition to the shiny "ferrules" makes it look kind of like an actual sunburst. The lighting is good. Bright enough to see what you are looking at, but dark enough to not overwhelm the photo with reflection and glare. Definately creative. Good luck in the challenge.
As you may know, I particularly like this concept... This image has lost some 'crispness' somewhere... the pixellation is farily dominant in this image. This could have possibly resulted from enlarging a cropped segement of the photo. The concept here is very strong but the clarity needs a little work probably :) You may want to take a look at resampling the photo if you need to enlarge rather than resizing... good shot :) - jmsetzler
I like the colors and the idea of synchronyous swimming pencils and this works well in the thumbnail. When I look at it in large size it gets very pixellated. I'm not an expert here but I think an unsharp mask might be helpful on this photo..
This is interesting and neat... I like the bloom effect you got. But I think it would be better with a higher resolution to eliminate the "digital" effect.
your photo is horribly pixelated, i wonder whether that's due to excessive file compression (you are allowed up to 150k, you used only about 60k), or cropping out of a low res photo. anyway, that, together with it being blurry (through water, i know) makes it hard to look at. i do like the concept, just not too thrilled with the implementation. -- gr8photos (3)
