    Really nice, I love the distortion. However, it does look a bit maximal to me.

    Hey that is really cool, lynn. I have been messing with filters, too. But not so creatively.

    I love the one you did with all the colors. The black and white one bothers me with the white area, and I would like the colored one better anyway. What really makes it is the one table setting.

    this is better than the colorized one! I like it a lot. since I'm still not 100% clear on this minimalism thing yet, would it be even more minimal without the dinner setting? (i.e. more boring rolleyes1.gif ) I like it as is, though. really like the inversion, too!

    I like Angelo's idea of getting rid of chairs but I would keep one at either end. I really like the use of bright color. It keeps the photo interesting without destroying its minimalist character.

    hmmmm......I'm sitting here and I keep wondering about the scroll work on the back of the chair.....and the snow is filling it in and I wonder what a full frame shot of that would look like? think that may be interesting? this minimalism challenge is killing me!! :cry

    I like your outside shot, too, Lynn, but what is the white stuff?

    Is that today?????

    Would you like a photo from here today? Can't gotta go to the airport.

    Am taking camera stuff, but I sure don't feel inspired. It is just another beautiful warm day here.

    I like it both ways, but the new one is maybe more minimal? Although my grasp of minimal is, well, minimal. :uhoh

    I like the framing on this one better, as it is not cropped as tight as the others with the light on the floor.

    17406125-M.jpg

    It feels more balanced to me. Whether you use the extra light fill or not, I would use this placement.

    Nice shotthumb.gif .

    P.S. I liked your B/W table shot. Kinda reminded me of something from Close Encounters with the bright light under the table. Any visits from ET?

    Really great shot!clap.gifclap clap.gifI like the light coming in, It pulls the viewer in to the shot by including them in the foreground, without the light comming in the window it feels to distant and cold,(no pun intended) I'd love to see the shadow line for the light crisper... Again, really great shot,thumb.gif I think this one's definitely a challenger!
