Terrifically well executed out-of-the-box photo. This is the sort of thinking and execution that should inspire photographers at DPC. What a gem! |

Yeah I knew it was yours, I think I'm getting to see your style more clearly now.
Great work the only thing whick kicks me is the string laying on top of the instrument, for some reason that doesn't sit well.
Congrats on a well deserved 4th, I actually believe it should have been higher. |

GREAT ILLUSION! I like this one and thought about doing something like it! The addition of the cords pins and knots makes the shot! Without it, it wouldn't be the same. The only thing I would change is the lighting. I know that you had to light it to make the arms dissappear, but this looks a touch flat. Is that a pick on the right hand thumb or a band aid? I'm assuming it's a pick as you put a lot of work into the detals.
Kudos

Hmmm... There is a photo in this challenge which features a clever illusion of a dissembodied hand with built in image stabilizer.. it looks a little 'Graphicfunk' but somehow without the polish. This on the other hand (excuse the pun) has all the classic hallmarks... excellent work Daniel (am I right?) - 10

Looks like Graphicfunk up to his old tricks. You must have a whole freakin' museum of musical instruments. Once again, a clever idea and expertly lit. One of the best illusions in the bunch- probably a top 10. The only suggestion I'd make is that the uh... Klingon Guitar should be resting on a surface so that only the hands are floating.
OK... bumping to a 10. You might have another ribbon on your dismembered hands. |

Once again! A very creative and well executed photo. Of course, the photo is technically sound. I'm always impressed with the attention to detail you show...except this time...is this instrument normally have only one string. However, I've never seen an instrument like this, so I wouldn't know otherwise. :-) |

Could this be the work of graphicfunk? Regardless... this is my pick for the blue simply because it is the best "execution" of any of the illusions. But I also like the angle, the colors, the sharpness. Good luck in the challenge. |
