Had a feeling this shot was going to cause some confusion and perhaps some tension. I /think/ it was a reference to the 'underlying theme' to the film that is often quoted - not a comment on religion being like the Matrix - but I'm not the photographer so I couldn't say :). It's a nice pic (if a tad bit small) but sadly I can't say I'm surprised it didn't place higher...

| I'm sure you're getting heckled with either claims that this doesn't fit the challenge, or claims that it's offensive to equate christianity to the matrix, but I will say that among a lot of flashy shots, this one actually issues a challenge of beilefs and perceptions, which is always valuable, and which was a big part of the movie as well. |

| Is this in reference to the religous subplots of the matrix? I haven't heard much about it, but I know that there are some things that line up. Goos shot if I make any sense at all. I could be confused. |

| Seems to indicate that religious freedom is a matrix, or trap in which the devout cannot see their entrapment. Some may agree with you, but others may find this offensive as their faith has released them from their entrapment. I hope I have not offended you: your portayal has generated many questions in my heart & mind. |

| I'm glad to see somebody knows of the similarities between the Matrix and the Christ story! I wondered if anyone here would get it. :) Good picture, wish it was bigger though. Maybe black/white would have been more striking. |
