mikesphotog said 362 days ago:

i like!

smkpl said 362 days ago:

finally an original take ...

Ana said 362 days ago:

I like this shot, over-all. I think the background is a bit busy, (the orange/blue/green striped furniture?) but otherwise, good interpretation.

mtmartini said 362 days ago:

The quality and lighting of this image is top rate, (it screams King!)however it says crossed to me more than twisted.

King said 362 days ago:

Ana,
The colors in the chair form a twist pattern. I removed about five items of furniture from the shot in order to simplify it. What I left adds interest, IMHO. Thanks for commenting

Tracy, This is straight natural light through the windows. Nothing fancy, no reflectors. The window coverings are burned down a bit. Thanks.

Tanja, mikesphotog, smkpl...thanks!

ryanrahn said 362 days ago:

Nice and smooth...good lighting. A different way to look at this theme...nice.

phototext said 362 days ago:

Great take on the theme, beautifully crafted image.

CraigMartin said 362 days ago:

Great idea, beautiful subject, and good execution...but I think a shorter dof would have made it perfect.

King said 362 days ago:

Craig,
Thanks, and I agree. I was using a borrowed camera and having trouble with the auto-focus...and this isn't as sharp as it should be. I decided to stop down a bit because it looked to soft, otherwise. I'm still having trouble with my right eye (my focusing eye), so I wasn't confident in focusing manually.

King said 362 days ago:

ryanrahn, phototext...thanks very much for your comments.

PhotoChron said 362 days ago:

Awesome shot. I could go into details on how it "works" but that would be one long comment. VERY well done. 5's

Ana said 361 days ago:

the king is back.
:)

King said 361 days ago:

PhotoChron,
Thanks--I'm pleased that you like the image so much.

Ana,
Thank you. I'm not yet in the swing of things and am still getting caught up with business other than W.S. I see some new names. I missed the awesome "Zen" theme.

ChriZ said 361 days ago:

Hey King, great as usual, the perspective is very well chosen, you like lying on the ground right? ;)
Who's the model?

King said 361 days ago:

Hey, Chriz, thanks. Yes, I was lying on the ground. The model (who is old enough to be your mother...shame on you) is this person:

I worked on your Prague photos a bit yesterday. I'll post them this week.

pursang said 361 days ago:

Those are not King's legs, but I know those are his shoes.

King said 360 days ago:

Wrong! My legs, borrowed shoes.
