Challenge: Vanishing Point (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Sony DSC-F717
Location: My back yard
Date: Aug 10, 2004
Aperture: f8
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/30
Galleries: Abstract
Date Uploaded: Aug 10, 2004

 This shot is through thye inside of about 20 feet of black, plastic French drain pipe. About 4 inches in diameter. The problem was getting it to stay straight and using enough pipe that the end point really disappeared away rather than show a "light at the end of the tunnel". The sunlight coming in the holes on the top and hitting the opposite side added a little balance. Little PS. Image was shot with Sepia function on.

Personally this was one of my favorite shots in this competition. I am surprised it did not finish higher.

I love this pictuer ! When I saw the thumbnail I was thinking: all those circels will cut of the paralell lines to the horison, but I was wrong. Is the light from the sun outside the tube(looks like holes where the lights comes from) or are they lamps ?

I am not sure what this is, but I think having the focus on the closer rings would have helped.

Is this a champange bottle? I like the abstract quality and the way the light reflects on the ridges. Only thing I don't like is the color. 9

Good shot, a little too busy, found my eye going round and round instead of toward the VP...
