thanks everyone for the nice words and commentary.
This is such an inspiring group of photographers and digital artists here.
As a relative new-comer, I'm glad this talented group enjoyed the image.
Thankyou again!
It's really tough to critique a ribbon wnner but I'll try :-)
I love this shot, and not just because I also shoot Nikon! It's funny, I think most of us can relate to this on some plane or another. The use of red/black/silver items scattered throughout the frame in a fairly plain setting, the tight vertical crop, the facelessness of the model (not to mention fearlessness too), the figure in the shower stall, the lighting...all just adds to a perfect storm imho.
And clearly the voters and commenters enjoyed it too. Keep up the creativity and good work!
Interesting photo, lots of detail, appropriate color editing. I think I might have gotten rid of a few of the red cups, but it does add a lot to the insanity of the image.
Nice... I'm guessing folks are either loving it, or hating it. I would think you're getting tons of comments. Bumping to a 10.
(Actually, first thing I thought of was "Red SOLO Cup" by Toby Keith.)
I can not stop staring at this, this is amazing. I'll probably come back to make more comments. It's just tooooo good. I don't remember the last time I laughed out loud at a photo on this site!
