Wow.. I like what happened here.. your Aurora-HDR created digital art! I use Photomatix Pro 6 for most of my images but generally process one at a time as a single image HDR. Yours combined things in a unique sort of way. I think you should experiment more with this.. see what else you come up with.

This confused me for some time, the brain knows then it doesn't, insane.

thats such a great result from your accident .. has it combined pics and then done an hdr on it .??.
its really difficult to tell whats going on .. which i like ..
things that arent immediately obvious really appeal to me .. you spend more time and see a whole lot more than you otherwise would have .. the more i look at this the more i like it .. :)

Love the droplets on the bright red fruit. Also the bokeh background.. works well together.

Very thought provoking.. makes you want to inquire further into the image.. maybe do a little exploring.

i've been reading 'man's search for meaning' by victore frankl .. it details his experiences in the concentration camps in the war .. i dont know exactly why but seeing this image brought the book into my mind .. the child on the left .. looking dejected .. the man talking to the children .. it makes me think in hushed tones .. he could almost be talking of his grandfather or great grandfathers experiences in the camps .. revealing the tragedies of life .. and what can come out of those tragedies ..
your treatment of the photo with the blurry indistinct shapes .. the black and white .. and the light coming in the window .. this is a powerful and emotive image .. who cares if the reality of the situation was completely different .. :)

All sorts of story poosibilities here. Including some sinister ones. It's a great photo and you dealt with the window problem perfectly.

I'd say: stay inside and take pictures! This is a wonderful image with a great story

PS. Call it something else. "Conference" is too formal for such a soulful image

I like John's comment. It also speaks to the divisions in our country today. Whispered conversations in the shadows. You window treatment is very believable.

This is strange in a good way, ghosts huddling together, the father telling the sons all will be well.
