DSS 67 Evolution of the idea- choices

tinamarie52

I've covered a lot of ground for this challenge. Too many ideas and not enough time!

I'd like to have your thoughts on these. I'll choose the one that matches my gut feelings, but would like to hear your thoughts.

So here's where I ended up.

Thanks a bunch.... Chris

Hi Chris--
Some of us already posted comments to your shots in my thread:)
Still like the olives, not so much the little marbles.

Thanks and sorry!

Okay, safe to comment now?! Liz handled that Hijack quite well! Very funny too I might add!

I actually like all of these. I think they ones with the red in them are distracting, and that is why I would not choose one of them, even though technically they are superior.

Have you tried spilling the marbles out of the glass? Either way I vote for an image with less color from your choices: two olives.

I couldn't square with any of these in my gut. None fit my vision of what I was experimenting with in the beginning. I played with the marbles last night and learned a great deal about the reflective and refractive combinations available to me. A bonus was that my teenage son got engaged in the whole experiment and had some great ideas. The time he spent brainstorming was priceless.

I put a totally different entry in the Challenge Gallery.

This one was a great learning expreience for me. The long and winding road takes you somewhere!

Thanks to everyone for their patience and critique!

Chris
