CH-81 Pictured

What's going on?

Interesting. At first I thought that the reflections were of the same scene till I looked again. I had thought of trying something along the lines of a collage myself as that would seen to fit the idea of Whats going On showing a group of different things happening all at the same time.

I like this one.

I asume you did it in processing? Though I do kinda like the idea of a recess into a wall with pictures arranged like that!

I like this idea!

I think he did it as 4 walls of photographs, but the reflections make it look like recessed walls.

Thank you RocketMan and jsedlak. This is 4 photographs stacked to form a cube, no major ps was done. Im still experimenting with the lighting, I either get the reflection of my camera and mini pod in the back photo or hotspots from my flash.

Very interesting concept. Keep at it there is something there.

Here is another aproach to the same concept, not sure which I like better. I think this one may fit the challenge better?

Ok heres # 3. I think ive about got it, I managed to get rid of the the harsh flash spots. I set up an off camera flash placed behind me and made a gap between the frames and the mirror in the very back center of this picture. Then I place a tilted piece of styrofoam for the flash to bounce into the picture frames. Thats me taking this picture, only basic photoshop techniques used and some cleanup. All comments welcome.

I really, really like the idea and prefer your most recent try. It looks a little crooked but because of the subject it doesn't bother me. Well, maybe I would try to straighten it if it were mine. I especially like the fact that even though you have explained what is going on, my mind still asks the question when I see the picture!! thumb Good luck in the challenge.

Thank you Virginia, I will probably try to tune it up a bit more and try to straiten it a little in in the process. I wonder if sense the theme is "whats going on?" if I should of tried to explain..

Help Me, I'm Falling!!!

I like the whole concept here, esp now knowing its not all photoshopped, not sure which version I like best though, but kool concept.
