I really like this shot and can't believe it scored so poorly. I guess many people were looking for a high-tech future, butI understand the significance of your title. I really like the flame effect you have created - it has a surreal quality about it and would work excellently as a background image (for a card or book for example). The shapes in the image are really interesting - especially the flames.

Hi from the CC, Betty.

Ooh. Didn't see this one - didn't vote. I love the effect, but I would imagine you were done for taking this too far away from photography, and into more art areas. Whilst that was obviously within the rules, I still think people were looking for stuff that was more clearly photos.

I'd be very interested to see the original - did it still manage to have that intensity of heat that you've caught with this? If so then I'd agree with the comment about the brush filter.

It fots the challenge clearly though, and there's certainly a quality to it that deserves far more than it's score or placing. Without the greyness at the bottom of frme it would be nothing though - very well done there.

Good luck

Ed
