This shot is as it came out of the camera, no mods at all. The shot is also candid (i.e. the silhouetted figure was not staged, he has his back to us and is looking up at the 'Sun'). I recommend a visit to the Tate Modern to take this in for yourself if you get a chance.

The lack of having kicked butt is beyond me as well. When I was browsing through the challenge results I got past the first two pages and figured it must have been disqualified because I hadn't seen it yet. Keep at it, great work.
Hi...I have made several pics of this event @ the tate.... I'll get in touch with you right after the challenge. It's funny because I hesitated a lot in giving a pic of this for this challenge !
dramatic poses, great lighting and a wierd perspective add a lot of cool visual interest to this shot. It's actually a bit disorienting to me to look at it, but I like the effect. well done!
Very cool shot. Don'thave a clue what it is. From the title I gather it's at the Tate gallery but neve heard of the project. Doesnt' matter. Excellent perspective great colours. 9
seen this shot sooooooooooooooooooo many times. But still like it. I personaly would have gotten closer to the man. As it is there is no feeling of scale (and it is huge in there). 7+
This is really interesting... I'm wondering, as I'm sure everyone else is what exactly you are shooting here... certainly a different subject. I'm not sure if it would have been possible... but I think a tripod might have been good to try and still the guy who is right in the "sun" but maybe he just moved too much? Interesting though.
Awesome shot. If you would have cropped or cloned out the bright yellow area on the bottome left corner it would be even better. Very creative and good eye!
I reckon this photo will score very high; at least it is my favourite of the week. A most excellent photo with wonderful colours, strong expression and a very interesting POV (10).
