Post challenge:

Too many people didn't see the illusion, i.e. that the antelope wasn't alive. Maybe I should have titled it, "He's Dead, Jim."

I don't see what the illusion is supposed to be. I'm afraid this isn't very interesting. I mean ya look at it for a second and you're ready to move on. Is it a real animal or a stuffed one? Try different angles maybe to find one that works?

If I'm right and this is just a head that you're using, great illusion, though that tree in the background is (to me) distracting, out of focus, and out of place. If it's not a head, well, I miss the illusion :P

Is he real or is he stuffed?? good illusion, well done.

Cool photo, but in my mind it doesn't meet the challenge at all....It's quite a stretch...4

I like the composition here and its an interesting angle to take the shot.
my only concern is the lighting which casts a strong shadow across some the body
08/09/2005 09:37:20 PM
technically this is a good shot. I think it would be better without the trees, but nice overall
08/09/2005 08:18:01 PM
I'm sorry but IMHO this doesn't fit the challenge at all :(
08/09/2005 03:42:36 PM
i cannot see the illusion here, please feel free to enlighten me.
*edit* oooohhh!

Interesting perspective on the animal in this picture. The leaves from the bush or tree nicely fills the space in the corner.

The title is confusing, but makes me think that this must be a stuffed animal? It's a well composed shot and an interesting angle, but I don't see the illusion, unless it's that the horn is coming out of the antelope's nose.

Nice clear image, but the leaves are a bit distracting. Can't really see the illusion though. Thinking it's a stuffed dears head giving the illusion it's alive?
08/08/2005 05:19:10 PM
Sorry I'm stupid. what's the illusion?....... Oh it's stuffed.
08/08/2005 04:34:34 PM

08/08/2005 11:04:50 AM
That looks pretty real, great texture, good lighting.
08/08/2005 02:39:28 AM
