Nice idea, but "Goal in this contest is to photograph something (like an eye) which reflects the homemade light of the ring light."
not sure if your photos does that. Love the effect though.

The intention was to have more of the fairy lights, I used for the ring light, reflecting in the silver and glass of the rose. However its not as obvious as I would have liked. But since very faintly you can see spots of reflected, red, green and blue in the silver, as well as the colour distortion all around formed from the lights close to the front of the lens. I am pretty sure this is on theme.

Dang! Good one.

Nice One.

impressive and I loved the way that you used the colors... creativity is with you...

You mean contrast?

Hiya Neo

Awesome shot ! Good exposure. Love all the details in the black. GL

JB

nice work!!! You pulled it off well!! Now let me see you float in air and fight!

You have a problem with authority, Mr. Anderson. You believe you are special, that somehow the rules do not apply to you. Obviously, you are mistaken.

I said, my name is Neo!!!!!

You hear that Mr. Anderson?... That is the sound of inevitability... It is the sound of your death... Goodbye, Mr. Anderson...

My NAME is NEO!!!!!!!!!

"Do you ever get that feeling that you're awake but still dreaming?"

You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes

"Why do my eyes hurt?"

You've never used them before & I'm poking them with a stick...lol

"So, if you die in the matrix, do you die for real?"

The body cannot live without the mind. You are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind.

Hah oh thats good I'm already hopin this one's a winner!

MR.ANDERSON! it was stupid i have the video game of the matrix and i chose the blue pill because i didnt pay attention to the cutscene and i woke up in my bed and it said game over

"You can't scare me with this Gestapo crap!!! I know my rights!!! I want my phone call!!!!

And tell me, Mr. Anderson, what good is a phone call if you are unable to speak?
:

"What are you saying that I can dodge bullets??!!!"

OMG I'm DIEING OVER HERE!!!! Just busted out laughing at work and they were wonderin what the heck was wrong with me!! Keep it going ya'll!

Can you feel it Mr. Anderson? Closing in on you? Oh I can. I really should thank you for it, after all, it was your life that taught me the purpose of all life. The purpose of life is to end.

"If that's true, then I've made a mistake and you should kill me now!!!!"

Why, Mr. Anderson, why?! Why do you persist?!

"Because I choose to!"

"You're going to help us, Mr. Anderson, whether you want to or not."...great photo author...love the expression so much...well done

Still using all the muscles except the one that matters?

I know you're out there.
I can feel you now.
I know that you're afraid.
You're afraid of Us.
You're afraid of change.
I don't know the future.
I didn't come here so I could tell you how this is going to end.
I came here to tell you how it's going to begin.
I'm going to hang up this phone and then I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see.
I'm going to show them a world, without you.
A world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries.
A world where anything is possible.
Where we go from there...

...is a choice I leave to you.

"How about I give YOU the finger and you give ME my phone call!

"Mr. Wizard. Get me the hell out of here!"

Haha ! Great shot !

"Whoa. Déjà vu!!!!!!!"



:

"Is it over?
Oh, no, no, no. No, it's not fair."

TOTALLY AMAZING!!! You are great at so many things my friend!

That set up is sheer dedication...

no way........sorry im on my ass here

Very, VERY nice. Good imagination and set-up. GL

Beautiful rose, but OOF, the focus is just behind it.

it is i agree...but have u tried the high resolution pic...it is slightly better.

I did, and there you could really see that the focus was on the stem, not the flower.

You don't need high res to tell it's OOF.

nice image -- like the effect that HDR gives this B&W

well done.
