Good photograph. I don't know if these cans are really moving, but it certainly looks like you caught them at the moment of impact!

We all know what the challenge title is. It is too bad that you could not take the time to be more creative with your titleing.

nice idea, nice comp, good motion, lighting ok, minimalistic, b&w's ok, overall very good

very interesting shot, think my favorite so far.

I think I liked this a little better before I realized that it was soda cans - the stamps on the bottom take a little away from the shot. However, it's unique - I love the motion and the choice of black & white over color. Nicely done.

For this contest everyone who has the word âcircleâ in their title is getting a lower score. This is a copy and paste version that I am including in every photo that I downgrade due to the title. We as members of DPchallenge know the topic of the challenge â we do not need to reread the topic every time we reach a photo. If circle is in the title and it is appropriate I will most likely not down grade, but it better be good. I am sorry if you do not agree with my method of protest â but scores are all I have. (neat photo - I am not sure if I should downgrade so I will not)

Upside down coke cans? Pretty neat. Ball-bearings would be cool to do this with as well.

nice display of dynamic motion ... to me this is a good use of the empty space .. I still think a little could come off the right side but, I do prefer symetry more than most.

wow!

Great idea - having taught physics for years I can confirm that technically this simulation is inaccurate. That aside I really like the composition, sense of movement, contrast etc.More diffuse lighting would have been better. Would make a good starting point for an ad. well done and good luck - 7

My second look at this photo and I'm bumping it up from 7 to an 8. It's just a very well done photo and it's eye catching. Good job.

good sense of geometry, movement ; well composed..I like it a lot.

love the light on those can bottoms...you've captured the metal quite nicely...the movement also does a nice job of leading my eye...but IMO...the gray background is a bit dull...maybe white or black would have been more interesting...it's a hard one because the shadow and highlight stand out quite nicely against the middle-ish gray...still one of the better entries.

Looking forward to a how you did that. :O)

I never thought of using soda cans to illustrate particle physics. Nifty interpretation of the challenge!

nice image, I gather they're cans upside down. Was there a magnet involved? It's a very cool picture, like that it's not in colour too

Cool!! I like. Very creative. Would have cropped just a little off the top. Good job.

Cool. What are those??? I like the offset image and the "movement." I wish the background were a tad darker.

that's a wierd picture.
