I love this photograph so much. It's very underrated and should have scored higher. This is one of my favourites too.

I guess folks didn't see this as 'Grace,' but this is a magnificent photo! Very inspiring!

So sure this would have been a winner, great work!

Thank you!
Though some critical words would have been helpfull. :)

Instead of picturing the permormance (action takes place in an Opera and Ballet theatre) i show the hidden part, the preparation.
In that grace-producing house there are ~20 cleaners, who earn 5$ per day. So, with a taste of irony you see the dance of a cleaner in the surreal world of grace.

Your work is simply beautiful. While I wish that your photo had won, or at least placed higher, it would please me even more to continue seeing your work... it's nothing short of inspirational.

i absolutely love this photo more than you could ever possibly know. :)

Dramatic, well framed and composed. Fantastic! I would actually be interested in having this oneon my wallll. 10+!

I like the composition, the lighting and the shilouettes, but I don't really get how the subject comes to challenge. Maybe a bit artistic interpreation for my taste.
11/02/2003 09:58:52 PM
fascinating. What dramatic lighting, attention getting composition, the hands reaching up against the back light, and the little figure hunched over.
11/01/2003 07:41:03 PM
This image is SO cool! I love it. At first glance it's like an illusion; the hands appear as though they could be real, but then you see the little person sweeping and you realize something is messing with you. I love the sepia tint and the silhouetted hands. Ten, very nice job.

This is really bizarre and delightful! I'm not sure what it has to do with Grace, but I'll assume I'm stupid and give it a 10!

Really nice. Where is the display? The lack of details enhances the feeling of being in an alternate universe. The colors work well. I also like the composition. The best thing is how normal the person seems, doing his work, within the scene.

I love the feel of this piece. My absolute favorite this challenge. 10

Coulkd be a very good poster advertisement for a museum. Nice light and silhouettes.
10/30/2003 12:49:39 PM
Wonderful and intriguing shot, but not sure it really says 'Grace' to me. 7
10/30/2003 11:46:42 AM
great image, very elegant, interesting, stimulating, but grace? Oh well, great pic
10/30/2003 10:41:33 AM
Amazing fresque. Duotone works well to enhance these shadows. Nice reflections too, but I would crop out 1/6 of the bottom to give a better balance to your image.

WOW!!!

Well I would have to make some philosophical jumps as to how this fits grace, if the world is a stage or a dream of the gods and he wakes up?? But despite my ability to make a clear connection I love that it makes me stop and think about one, and as a photo on its own I find it truly delightful. The lighting is superb and the size of the hands vs the size of the person, is great.

This is a suberb photo, I am not sure how it applies to grace. Could you please explain it to me. I love this and would make a great print!!!!
10/29/2003 04:11:19 PM
I don't know that is something I'd consider graceful but it certainly has lots of visual impact - it's quirky, interesting, beautifully lit with wonderful shadows and a warm tone. The position of the person onstage also adds a lot of interest.

I love this photo and hope there is an explanation of where it is etc when voting is over.
