Challenge: Chaos (Advanced Editing I)
Camera: Sony Mavica FD-95

Date Uploaded: Apr 4, 2004

 This was originally an imitation of 'out of chaos...' by rhisper (//www.dpchallenge.com/image.php?IMAGE_ID=28839). I just decided to keep it more simple, which is a problem many people may find with this picture, that it is simple not complex and doesn't seem chaotic. I'm trying to represent the chaos that can be within something that isn't visible. I don't know how well people will be able to idealize this and my score may suffer because of it. Its a learning experience, and I want to learn what people would think of a shot like this.

Well, I learned from it. Learned that although it may be out of the box people may find it too wierd and not see any connection to chaos, which is understandable. It was a fun experience.

Perhaps a bit deep for this group, but I like the idea! Ironic and fun. And sideways.

I'm sure there's probably some connection to chaos here, but I'm just not getting it....sorry.

the ultimate state of inert uniformity... but the lack of energy doesn;t seem to express choas very well, IMHO. I do like the shot, the composition and is technically flawless.

If it really wouldn't fall, I think we would have true chaos.

Alldough I don't know what entropy means, it's a very nice shot.

This one goes over my head... I understand entropy but don't get the point you're making. Are you saying that over time, this stone will give way to entropy and chaos? A very subtle point if so. Also, why is the shot on it's side? The entropy of the stone falling? Interesting shot with effective lighting but I just don't get it.

Not sure how you're trying to indicate chaos here, unless it's due to the fact that you've turned the photo sideways and that the rock should have fallen? If so, perhaps a little deep for me
