i must be up front, this photo has no special meaning nor does the title. i am not a "fine art" kinda guy but i thought i would try to come up with a very random black and white shot to see how it would do. as far as the title, i have been on a kick lately of giving my shots nonsensical titles cuz it makes me laugh.
thinking i may be in the running for a brown, we'll see...

Oh man, the first person I thought about when I saw this was Ken, and him calling me a right-brained lunatic, and repeating that he is Art, not artsy. Lol, then I read this:

LOL - I love the whole story here, Jason. You did what I would've done - something random and pretentious. Still, you applied some constraints to it that kept our resident fine art critics from picking it out of the crowd. They were on to you.

Funny! Hehe, so "fine art" ... :)

BTW, I'm with Art, I'd like to know what she thinks it is.

Don't you just hate hearing you have failed on the exact points where you succeeded. I mean to assume this image has a single focal point is amazing to me. Oy Vey!

I'm guessing this will do well in this challenge, top 5?

6 - I like that you've gone for oddness, but it is not quite odd enough and doesn't pack enough pp punch, in my opinion. The focal points also detract.

I think this will do very well in the voting but 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 etc. all placed together in frame... I need to know why?

Stands out from the rest with it's clean lines, going for the modern description. I don't get the reference but I don't need to, I find the subject and composition intriguing, like a puzzle.

I really reeeallly like this. I love the quirky story it tells, and the technical quality of this is just plain amazing!

I like the composition and light. Not sure about the exposure, or perhaps the b&w conversion. It seems too gray.
