Shutter: 1/400

Taken at Red Rocks in Denver, Colorado. Reduced saturation to zero, adjusted contrast and brightness, and added the border.

I love the pattern that the supports for the wooden benches make. It's an interesting abstract texture. A sea of seats as far as the eye can see.

wow, how odd. was this shot with a fish-eye? Great effect!

Very nice image and use of curves and abstract symmetry (I made that term up). Contrast could use a little help to define the textures a little more. The really distracting point is that box near the middle of the photo. Real shame that is there to ruin such a great photo. Border is also a bit distracting as I really wanted my eyes to flow all the way to the frame constraints to enjoy the infinite feel you gave this photo. 7

Very unusual, it makes me dizzy trying to figure out the 3rd dimesion :) I like the imperfections in the line every now and then, and I'd love to know where this actually is. Nice job.

Very interesting shot but the border is very distracting.

If this had been a repetition or architectural challenge, this would have scored very well, as the photo is very interesting, but they are simply seats.

great lines and flow to this photo. I am usually a big fan of borders and I get blasted for them all the time but this time a plain out of photo border would have been bore effective....the inner one is distracting to the flow...still a great shot. 8
