fantastic; a classic; just so nicely set up and shot; such great warmth without color; the clouds are perfect; its a winner in my book.

Great sky & wonderful idea. I really like the random lamp further down the field, made me smile

With such a beautiful and detailed landscape, I think the subject here should have been more simple for maximum effect. I would have liked a stronger composition as well. Starts an intriguing story though.

A for concept, A for composition, A for execution.

Python art. Hmmm....

6 - I like the effort, but it is not strange enough (I know) for me - as in, looks too staged, maybe a much bolder crop on the left, to eliminate 'normality', who knows. The compositional balance is also out - what with that lonely lamp on its own on the right there and all. I like that element. Fairly minor, but there seems to need a whisker nudge up on the left.

This resists all my attempts to understand, explain, or even comment on it, it is so awesomely amazingly brilliant. I looked at it for 10 min. before I saw the 4th lamp. The mirror (I think it is a mirror?) is a stroke of genius. If I could give it 10 twice, I would.

Wow! This is creative on many levels. Love that it's black and white also. Hope you score well.

I see a lot of these juxtapostion shots that I don't honestly understand. Top Hat's, umbrellas, eggs, nudes, jumping fish, birds nests, old telephones, clocks, dried flowers, leafless trees etc. all placed together in frame... I need to know why?

I would liked to see this in colour. I'm not sure what the mirror is about? I think you could of excluded it.

This is the "odd = fine art" school, a school I don't agree with. It's weird, I give you that, but is it you? Is there anything being said or shown here that you really care about? In my view, that's the definition of fine art; that the photographer communicated something. Weird is everywhere, and therefore is not unique or interesting. Technically, a fine photo, suitably sharp, b/w well done, depth of field perfect, light wonderful, composition pleasing.

amazing processing here. I struggle so hard to get a good B&W conversion. Hope you will share with us how you converted and adjusted this. 8

I wonder how many people won't notice the free-standing lamp?

reminds me of Judi's lampshades

Very unusual and creative composition.

awesome job. I love it. I have just one question: Where does she plug the lamps in?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Wonderfully odd and nice in B&W!

This shot is so much fun to look at. The clouds are amazing and great detail throughout the entire frame. Very creative and unique. I give you one of a few 10's I handed out but this is my very top pick. Love it.

She is searching for kindred spirits but all she finds is her reflection. The floor lamp is behind her. I love it!
