Cool use of the camera tilt with this one. So many angles and shapes, and although it's represented fairly literally, the tilt and distortion bring some abstractness to it so we can appreciate the shapes.

Thanks! I was inspired by my last vacation. PEI was so nice. However, not inspired enough to remember to set the clock on the camera. It's really discouraging that an amateur gets dq'd for the time on the camera, while trying to compete with real professionals. And part of the reason I haven't participated here in over a year. I find the comments have gotten much less helpful, from a technical perspective, than they used to be. I would have had a 5.5 on this image, which would have been one of my highest.

Oh well, will set the time and play by the rules next time. I hope DPC finds its way again toward helping people learn and improve their craft.

I 'git' it! Bit soft and flat though - nice idea, nice poses!

Please see my comments above. It's too bad the viewer can't see these comments when voting.
Like many on this site, I chose not to take "macro" literally. It's more metaphorical. Glad you like the shot.

Thanks

Sorry that my interest in abstract macros is not the interest of most of the group. I will continue to take photos like this because I like to keep people guessing. The fact that you didn't know what the subject was means this was a successful picture to me.

Oh, and it's not an elbow. It's an upper lip/cheek of a contractor after sanding drywall on a hot day.
