 a last minute submision. i was photographing a writing pad with its lines and it looked crap and uninventive. i then look to my left. the blinds at my window with the dark of night behind looked the goods. no cropping, just some PS "contrast and brightness". Viola! abstract parallel lines better than i thought for this no-effort effort.

Just appears to be either white on black or black on white lines of varying width.

What is the subject?
 03/23/2004 10:46:56 AM
This is a bit too stark for my taste.

It is to simple for me, I can not see that it is a photo

You got the theme spot on, that's for sure. But I think you went a bit too simplistic with it.

Well, you've definitely met the challenge topic with this one! However, there's nothing else in the image apart from the lines, so I feel that it doesn't have anything to keep my interest in it. Also, the image is very small, both in dimensions and in file size - you're allowed to use up to 640 pixels in any direction, and up to 150Kb, so you've lost some quality in the compression and lost impact due to the small size. Hope this helps!.

Photo? or Drawing

I like that the dark shadows aren't exactly even. It really adds to the overall composition - 7

kinda boring..

Very parallel. However, all it is is black lines on a white background. Nothing special. I wouldn't know what it was of except for the title. The lines are also uneven widths, a personal preference of mine is to have them even. Good job fitting the challenge though.

Maybe the idea is good but I dont find it very creative or exciting

This looks almost fake. Did you up the contrast a ton? it almost looks like more of somthing created in PS than a photograph.
 03/17/2004 03:23:17 PM
And the subject is???
 03/17/2004 12:42:20 PM
A bit stark and texture-free for my tastes.
 03/17/2004 08:35:33 AM
Meets the challenge. Though there is a lack of depth and composition.
 03/17/2004 08:23:46 AM
A little plain for my taste
 03/17/2004 12:14:43 AM
boring
