 I worked pretty hard on this one, as lighting is not my strong point. (not sure if I have a strong point, come to think of it!) Found the vase at a discount store and thought it was interesting. Hope you guys agree.

It's a cool vase isn't it? I've used it in a couple challenges and it has never done that well but I enjoy playing around with it.

Great subject. Lighting and conversion B&W works very well to bring out the form.

Still dig this image. Spooky. I loved the eye level perspective with the all black background :) You should put in your portfolio.

Go Jokers!

Really nice shadows and lighting to this. Perfect for a chee-a-pet - would give him alittle hair. NOT really.

Go Jokers. I think this is a sleeper - people can't relate to it, don't understand it, find it disquieting. That is what makes it great, but probably isn't going to help your score. You'll have to admit (after voting) - it is unique.
