nice image, but yes, i'm gonna gig you on the stretching thing... i stretch my photos for almost every challenge, I just dont do it by much. depending on the subject, you can usually get away with 10 to 15 pixels of stretch (or squeeze) in one direction. After that, it gets kinda iffy.
I'm wondering why the image looks compressed vertically, Its a great photo of a complex machine but it would also be nice for the aspect ratio of the image to look normal (ie, have the wheels be circle shaped instead of oval)
Wow...sure has lots of moving parts to maintain. I do wonder what it performs or accomplishes. Your image is good, and interesting. It also meets the challenge nicely. Good luck in the challenge! 7 Grayce
This picture looks stretched to me. The gears are oval and shouldn't they be round? That's the only thing that bothers me. Otherwise the picture meets the challenge and is in focus
Technically correct , exposure, focus, saturation , contrast. 8 Good composition. Tells a story or creates a mood Impact to the viewer technically excellent but no wow factor Relevance to the Challenge 9 Overall 8 sulamk
