This is a good photo. I guess people back then did not have a sense of humor.

Nice job on the exposure (white not blown out but can still see detail in the shadow)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Would have been better if you had caught some pages standing up as they flipped.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/20/2002 06:34:00 PM
This would have been more effective if a page was in the middle of turning.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/20/2002 04:19:00 PM
great idea, nice composition. Would have liked it better if it had been shot 1/2 sec earlier, when some of the pages were straight up and down, before falling to the other side.

Was there motion in the first place?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/20/2002 11:09:00 AM
There could have been motion here but there is no evidence of it now. Bear that in mind in future shots.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Interesting take on stopped-motion. The blank pages are key.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/20/2002 05:06:00 AM
Nice. Congratulations!!

Nice pic but i dont connect it to the theme
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/19/2002 12:40:00 PM
Interesting colors but its hard to get the impression of stopped motion.
I gather your flipping the pages of the book. but there is no referece to show that this is so.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/19/2002 09:49:00 AM
What is stopped? This doesn't seem to fit the topic.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/19/2002 02:54:00 AM
not really stop action.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/19/2002 01:48:00 AM
while I don't doubt you were flipping pages, it doesn't feel like stopped motion.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/18/2002 06:03:00 PM
This image jumped out at me immediately. I just like it, don't know why. I am making the assumption that the pages were turning.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/18/2002 05:27:00 PM
Beautiful image, but no sense of motion
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/18/2002 01:15:00 PM
Hard to tell if this is really a stopped motion or if the book is just open to the page and sitting there. Still, an interesting photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/18/2002 09:57:00 AM
I'm sorry but I really don't see the action in this picture.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/18/2002 09:08:00 AM
interesting take on the subject, but not my definition of stopped motion
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/18/2002 01:42:00 AM
How am I to know that you didn't just take a picture of a book?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/17/2002 05:40:00 PM
Original idea, but
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/17/2002 04:44:00 PM
amusing idea. i must be missing something though because i dont see how this has anything to do with stopped motion except in an ironic sense.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 08:36:00 PM
where is the motion? This may have been better zoomed out a bit where you could see some blur on the edges of the pages where they were being flipped
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 06:27:00 PM
Original, nice title.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 04:16:00 PM
looks stagnant, but pretty
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 02:01:00 PM
I'm missing the action here ...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 12:16:00 PM
Don't get a good sense that this is stopped motion
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 09:22:00 AM
I like the texture of the shot however, the motion is lost.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/16/2002 05:49:00 AM
This just doesn't look like the pages were in motion when you shot the pic
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 09:45:00 PM
Might have been better, if a page was standing straight up.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 06:45:00 PM
it took me a minute, but now I understand the photo. :) Very nice! Composition is fitting. I like.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 06:26:00 PM
OK I'm gonna trust youn on this one. The pages are moving, riight? But it would be more convincing if a few were caught mid turn. That said, I like the composition and lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 06:18:00 PM
I like the attempt here but I have no indication that there is any motion being stopped. Primary objective should be to meet the challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 05:42:00 PM
Not sure what motion you were stopping
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 02:27:00 PM
Tough subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 02:17:00 PM
very original but no interest here
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 09:54:00 AM
Great photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 09:35:00 AM
Not a whole lot of implied motion - you could have stopped it or it might never have started...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 08:47:00 AM
i don't see the motion. the pages should have been more obviously flipping. it looks like they're just being held down!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2002 12:40:00 AM
You may have caught an excellent shot, but as I see no indication of motion here, I have to rate 1 for lack of fit to challenge.
