Goddamnit this is good once more. It's so wonderfully surreal without shoving it into your face. The colours couldn't be better. The picture just seems to tell me a very strange story, and I feel intruiged to find out what story it is. Maybe I'll try some day.

Did you force high ISO or something? The multicolored digi-grain is really a pain. (oh shit that rhymes). Well. It's a cool picture though. Maybe you should do a reshoot someday. Or do it in sepia. Hell I don't know.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
added grain to it
problem is - its a photomanip - none of the shots are mine hahaha. Guess i faked you out on this one?

Ahhh, very surreal! The slightly brown-ish hue and the noise make it seem like a sort of antiqued dream. Good work, Chris :-D

what can i say: it is the fair expresion of the built of mountains, sheltering the peace from "to kill a humming bird"....the simple steps of emerging simbolism
and might i add : congratulate kristen for determinig you to put this here.
and congratulate the minister of education for considering photography something worth studying.

I like this one a lot! The (couch?) seems pretty flawless, a nice shadow would have helped but those can be a pain. The hot air balloon is a great addition, and the person dangling from the rope/chain is funny. The rope/chain seems a bit thick though, from this distance, for example the rope/chain from the balloon to the basket is barely noticable, and the same thickness would be true for the rope from person to person (if that is a person
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes i hate shadows
wasnt sure where hte light was coming from either *shrug* im guessing left of camera but who knows
the rope IS thick - but itd only be like 1 friggin pixel and it would look real jagged and shite.
and yes thats a person - spent a long time trying to make it look like a person and gave up.
again i dont like this piece - but she did and made me submit. It got 4 favs - so i guess ill let it stay.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah keep it man, its good.
yeah judging from the shadows on the bails of hay the sun is real low and from the left. what i would have done on the rope would have been hand-delete some of it, because you cant draw something thinner than a pixel, but you can erase it, then blur maybe?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
scratch that - had nothing else to do in class
hand deleted and then faded out the cord so it wasnt so "OMFG THATS HUGE"
do u think it looks right now?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
i tried blurring and such at the beginning (different version of a rope ) but it looked like shit......
oh well - TOO LATE NOW

I like it very much. the grainy quality keeps the fantastic events and objects anchored

i love the graininess and the total psycodelic trip of it
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
cool atmosphere......someting about the colours and the unbalancing scene....seems like something straight out of a hazy dream........this appeals to my distorted sense of perception now, i like it.
