that is sick. The more twisted the better. Never would of known it was Niagra. Nice score and placing, looks like a lava pit.

I must chime in as well. Amazing picture, creative use of color, scary score, should be top three with gaurawa. Yours and gaurawas are the two best, easily.

Way cool shot. Love the way it seems as though the entire structure is collapsing and sliding off into the lower left. Awesome work.

Your use of grain here was highly effective, even moreso, IMO, than that of those who placed higher. When I looked at it again once the challenge was done I realized it must a shot of a pier or landing of some kind... would not have imagined Niagra though. Fine work.

The view is spectacular.

Wow. Great scene and processed well to get this mood.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Presumably this is an elevated boardwalk above an ocean very convincingly turned to fire and brimstone. It's a terrific composition, expertly photographed and processed, but it's the great idea that impresses me the most. 8 ... Nope, bump to 9.

Very intense. Looks like your in the midst of a hurricaine. Color treatment was a good choice. Figure seems a bit broken up, though. Anyway, overall the image was very powerful.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/27/2005 11:55:42 AM
That is an appropriate title. I had to look twice to realize that the "fire" is actually water.
Great entry.

One of my favorites, this is PREFECT! Great job!

Fantastic image. Nice title. This perfectly illustrates the issue of caption and context in photojournalism....

Looks like that guy is in a KKK outfit. Yes the waves look like molten Lava.
Good idea.

Beautiful. Looks like a movie still.

Wow - that's moody. Nice shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/24/2005 05:19:18 PM
It's amazing what post-production can do to a picture. What once was water now looks like lava. I sorta wish it had even more grain as it is really only noticeable in the bottom left. 8
