Presentiment of Death

Alright, I'll bite. How'd you do this? :-)

For the background, it seems easy enough... it's grey stone with snow, so not much chroma to be had... But you seem to have gotten the leaves to go away, too.

Hmm, per-channel levels and/or curves?? Anyway, I'm curious. It's a nice shot, and neat to think it was done with only basic editing.

Wow, that's a neat effect. OK, one question: is this done with first-curtain sync, or is it upside down, with second-curtain sync? It "feels" to me like the latter, though I imagine either is quite possible. Anyway, interesting -- the images in the drops (ignoring the blur) are awesome.

My aesthetic wants just a bit more empty space at the front/bottom of this image... quite nice, though.

The eyes have it

I was very much thinking of doing one of these... Just didn't have a model handy, and didn't quite feel like searching for one just for this, so I did something else instead. I'm a big fan of eye pictures, though, and have done a number of them over time... Fun stuff!

It seems to me that everything in this image is in decent focus, though not quite perfect for the California, I guess. It's an interesting setup... I'm just trying to understand how it fits in with the challenge. :-)

Nice effect... the flower looks detached from anything -- which I presume was your intent.
