Challenge: Abstract (Advanced Editing II)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Canon EF 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 II USM
Location: My dining room
Date: Apr 29, 2004
Galleries: Abstract, Black and White
Date Uploaded: May 2, 2004

 This is a shot of my dining room chandelier, taken as if I was the centerpiece, looking straight up. I was lying down, right in the middle of my dinig room table as I took the shot.

Shot in raw mode, converted using FVU, wb to 2800. In PS, 10D finisher, very slight levels to make BG pure white, resize and border.

Let's see if anybody can guess what it is. I gave a little hint in the title, but people will most likely not get it, and therefore give me a low score.

Why take a simple monochromatic graphic design and add that border to detract from its elegant simplicity? It detracts horribly!

I'd move the axis of the shot so the bars are at 12 & 6. I'd lose the border, as well. Nice overall, though.

Are you looking up at a light fixture? Interesting choice of subject matter. A bit bright for my taste, but I see the effect you were going for.
