Hey Frank, I missed this one! Really cool. Photographing art is difficult, because art is interpretation already, and so as a photographer, you're then interpreting an interpretation. But this works so nicely! You succeed!
Thanks for all the nice comments on this entry. This was an easy shot of a sculpture at the Seattle Center. I was walking around the center, looking for parallel lines and my daughter pointed the sculpture out to me. If I were to shoot it again, I would lie down on my back and shoot up, this one I was standing. Here’s a 3D link to the sculpture, just move your mouse around on the photo and get dizzy. You can see the EMP (Experience Music Project) and the Space Needle in the photo.
By the way, I didn’t see this link until after I entered in case you wondering if that’s where I got the idea, I give my daughter Nicole all the credit.
I can;t believe this didn;t ribbon! It's a tragedy I tell you!
Well, if I were the only voter this would have come first place! Congrats on a great original shot. Adding it to my faves!
I don't know what they represent in reality, but they way they want to set themselves free from the ground... makes it brilliant! There is also a feeling of wind.. "of change" (maybe)
i'm completely intrigued by this. really great work; it definitely holds my attention. if anything, i'd like to see a slightly more dynamic background. the shadow on the leftmost of the three center 'lines' is a little distracting, whereas the colors on the rightmost one are beautiful. it glows.
Very creative; I have no idea what I'm looking at, but it's a well composed image. I wish the sky (?) was a deeper blue with maybe some clouds. Those things stretching up are so interesting and I get the feeling I'm going to say when I find out what they are. One of the best pictures for this challenge.
love this, beautiffully surreal and great use of colour. A high scoring entry Iassume. I hope the pedants don't spoil it by complaining about the non straight lines.
Nice intr. photo. Can't make out the size or orientation of these "things", and that gives alot more eye-time. Nice abstract and fits the challenge very nicely. Can't wait to see what the hell this is. Good job.
