 I like how eerie this looks, the face in the blanket caught my eye as I was having a late night smoke. Its a blanket drying on a line of my neighbors house. The apartment above me had their light on which is how it was lit. It is a 30 sec exposure. Conversion and editing was minimal. Gradient map to black and white. Slight shadow highlights, small S curve, crop and sharpen.

You've got a great eye to catch this. I like that movement on the right and yet it goes so well with the static area on the left. This has me thinking "invisible man".

leaning grills & floating towel - beautiful & strange combination.

You find the most amazing things at 30 seconds. I really need to try that sometimes. The face caught my eye immediately as well, and the rest of the shot supports it nicely.

Makes me think of animals in the cage to the left and the towel to "clean up" whatever horrible thing they do to them. DAMN - why did I look at this. ;~P

Very eerie! I noticed the face in the thumbnail right away. I like how the towel is blurred.
