    It looks like there are several
    reflective images of you shooting this on the wall. Pretty cool concept. The chain sends the mind in several directions. Pretty cool Nik.

    Thanks for looking and commenting!

    They were not, in fact, originally reflective:-)rolleyes1.gif
    And yes, the chain does spice things up.
    Frankly, I was originally hesitant whether to include it into the frame or not, but I went with it. I decided that I can always clone it out if I don't like it.. But I did:-) :D

    Thanks :-)

    Funny: I spent about two hours shooting an event and probably another hour or so processing and uploading the results - all of which left me with nothing even to post about... ne_nau.gif
    This shot was taken in the spur of the moment on my way out, and I spend maybe 5 min or less processing it. Yet it's the only one I like from this shoot..:-)

    I think it shows that you are keeping your eyes and imagination open. Give a very small child a present and he might very well play with the box instead. This is good.

    I like the shot a lot. The chain makes it a bit unnerving. Nice work.
