While some in DPC considered this photo entry a waste of time, I present to you the viewer a different take on "beginning of the end", a beginning which is at first imperceptible, mostly missed until one looks with a closer attentiveness and begins to see the beginning (the white line beginning 1/3rd of the way into the middle of "delineation"), a beginning which then continues across the frame and on beyond our horizon. Okay, some DPC voters are NOT into symbolic photography, preferring every entry to be realistic, representation, non-artistic, certainly non-philosophical.
While I totally agree that "delineation" is boring as a stand alone "photo" (and it IS a photo of a line on a page), it offers viewers another way of looking at a very common human experience, that of completely overlooking the "beginning of the end" because we are too quick to judge what we think is not there.
And yes, I was "shooting for Brown". I know I'm not the only member of DPC that occasionally has a quirky sense of humor by boosting your photo one place higher in a challenge simply by entering a photo which we hope will place last.
Thanks to Raish for his "Brown Ribbon" icon:

They don't actually hand out brown ribbons. So it may remain conceptual, in keeping with your entry. I made my own and have it on my profile page and in the portfolio. Feel free to display it if you wish. You got some nice comments, anyway...
My wife thinks that you think too much, and she's distraught at not being able to keep up. I just think this is wierd. :) Got my attention though. In a way, this is very creative. But I think you are heading for the brown ribbon.
I dont know whether this is a common problem or not but this image is not appearing on my monitor either as a thumbnail or as a full sized image
It may be worth letting the SC know...Bizarrely I cant leave a comment without leaving a score so I will give you a 5 but promise to come back and revisit it if it appears
Oyyyyy!!!!! Trying to guess here .... a very faint line in the middle of the image, very faint, and not all the way through, delineation .... that would be a description or an outline or something like that, maybe a border, like the border between life and death (yeah, sure, now I'm getting weird). I'm trying to think how this fits in with the challenge. A line, I don't know. I'm lost.
ummmmm i tried refeshing the page twice but it still looks like no shot is here...either an error or you did a great job of copying the default DPC b/g
