Ok I had this idea about a housewife and the laundry is haunting her, anyway first I did put strings to the clothes pins and did let 2 people pull them, But that was pretty hopeless..
So what I did She laid on the floor and There was one guy that helt a halogen light above her abd as he turned it of I zoomed, and then I burned out the glow around her.
Thanks to Anna again for being my model :)

From a once and a time lazy Critique Clubber finally inspired.

A detached looking young woman, just out of a religious Italian Renaissance painting, attacked by fast, furious and uncontrollable cloth pins. The Martyrdom of St Anna by the Laundry Basket is about to begin. Great! The French Surrealists would have loved this one as much as I do, I suppose. That is, of course, before the title is to be read. Such a surprising and unexpected image could benefit from an adequately composed caption. Laundry phobia does seem a little short and mundane to match the challenge.
This well-done picture has great allegoric strength and would have deserved the top honors it predictably did not get.

All the best, JJ

I don't know what it says as a statement, but technically this is very impressive. I hope you have indicated in your notes how you did this, because that't the first place I am going to visit after the challenge!

Creative shot! I love the tones. I'm wondering how you rigged the movement on this one. Strings (I hope) never the less, its a great shot. 10

Deeply weird mood you struck. Attack of the vengfull clothes pins! Tonal range is a bit flat but I think that helps the oddness.

Very very odd. I like it. I'll be really interested to see how it was done. Please include photographers comments so I can read them after the Challenge is over.

Here is some VERY advanced editing, and very good too. I can't think how is it done, and I think it would spoil the illusion if I knew, so please don't tell me.

Odd idea. Would be interested to hear how (and why!) you did this? Still a nice shot, especially the choice of tones

Nice idea, but should the clips not move the other way, considering the title ?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very Original

Let me see if I can figure this out. You exposed the model and the clothes pins with flash in the dark. She moved and turned on the light. Then you zoomed wide to get the streaks and finish the shot. Well executed Heida?

Unique..can't wait to hear how this one was done. Like it, good luck.

Quite a set up I'm sure. Works well, though maybe more colourful pegs could enhance ?

Or, "Attack of the Killer Clothespins"

Wow, very creative and imaginative shot. Shame the skin tone seems a little off. I'd like to have seen the arms not cropped. Model has a great expression.
