Hmmm... and this picture relates to Pi ....how? The picture itself is a grand one. I love silhouette shots, but I don't understand why it is here. Sorry. (5)

Wonderful!!! I would like to see this in color however. Might emphasize the "Apple" part a bit more.

Nice shot. As for confusion (which is another way that I spell Pi) I like the title and picture.

It grabbed my eye since it also reflects my birthdate!!

Very basic, simple and smart. Great job. Lighting is almost perfect and focus is right on. Thumbs up

I understand the "Pi"lons reference... but I think you could have spent a little more time on this picture. The board is a distraction making it seem as if there are 2 pictures instead of one... and the brick was not necessary to the shot. Maybe if you had taken the picture from a different perspective it would have been better. I think maybe if the picture had been taken from a left side view of the same area, and from a ground-level view, that the overall picture might have grabbed me a bit more.

Otherwise, the picture was well taken...clarity, focus, DOF. Seeing as this is digital... next time try taking a dozen or so shots from different angles and pick out the most interesting. This one doesn't quite meet that pinnacle. Sorry! (4)

Perfect representation of the numerical Pi... the first of the numbers being well-known and then the rest of the numbers just going on and on till it is a blur.

I can think of a few ways that you took this shot... but please include the explanation in the picture profile. I will be interested to know for sure.

Nice shot... but I just don't see how Pi relates. (4)

What a beautiful shot! I really like it.

I especially like the fact that the gentleman with the dog seems to be pointing to where 3.14159265358... would be on a clock face.

Joe..
This is a wonderful photo. I know how you can wish "it wasn't on the web" because it makes you look vulnerable and weak. But in reality... it shows a part of all of us. We all have that look on the inside of us from time to time, even if it doesn't show necessarily on the outside.

As for the photograph itself... after working for so long in the photojournalistic field, I can tell you this...this is a perfect example of an 'open-ended photojournalistic photograph'. Photojournalism is the art of using a picture to tell a story. By open-ended I mean that your picture tells a complete story without necessarily giving the particulars surrounding the photograph. Anyone who looks at your photograph knows immediately that you are scared, feeling vulnerable and afraid of whatever is next. Only you and whoever you have told know WHY you are feeling this way, but this doesn't necessarily matter since the feelings you are feeling are right there in front of us.

Great photograph, Joe!!

Wish I had gotten the time to vote on this challenge. This photo would have been a jaw dropping, breath taking reason why I love this website.

This would have gotten a score of 9 from me. A superbly busy and completely filled shot with balance, clarity, rhythm and beauty.

Congrats on your ribbon! I will be waiting for your next entry!
