This is good....although slightly grainy in the blue and white. I think the effect would still have been there if you would have cropped the support on the ball just below the middle finger.

Very creative! Interesting angle. But i think it would be better if you had cropped more from the top so that it's not visible that the figure is connected to something. Even if that involves cropping the fingers.

nice imagination : )

Great effect! Kudos for pulling this off! 9-ClubJuggle

An interesting view that gives new art to the art. Good job. One little bit of pondering... I wonder if you could get rid of the shadow by using fill flash?
 07/20/2002 12:14:00 PM
I love the perspective
 07/20/2002 09:43:00 AM

This is fabulous! My only gripe is the base of the statue, I would have rather not see it. Focus is great, head to toe. 10 Swash

 07/18/2002 09:02:00 PM

Cool 8

clipped top and generallly a very obvious and not very inspiring manipulation.
 07/18/2002 02:07:00 PM
that's a nice angle *laughs*
 07/18/2002 10:15:00 AM
really cool
 07/18/2002 04:52:00 AM
Funny. Good idea.
 07/17/2002 10:47:00 PM
Neat idea but I wish I could see a bit more of the face, less shadow
 07/17/2002 08:52:00 AM
good cropping!
 07/17/2002 06:53:00 AM
this is so strange
 07/17/2002 04:35:00 AM

clever - but the direction of the shadows show what you have done :)

Awesome angle -- this is a _wonderful_ example of using artwork as a _piece_ of your expression in the shot. Very nice.
 07/16/2002 02:52:00 PM
wow, pretty neat. love the framing and the stark colors. 9--amitchell
 07/16/2002 12:10:00 PM

 07/16/2002 07:02:00 AM

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10
 07/15/2002 07:40:00 PM
Excellent. Color is great. Capture is great. Nice and simple. I just wish that the poll top was better removed from view.
 07/15/2002 04:29:00 PM
nice
 07/15/2002 03:05:00 PM
cool thinking
 07/15/2002 01:33:00 PM
should have oversaturated to get the sky a bit more blue i think.. other than that, great subject.
 07/15/2002 01:10:00 PM
Nice composition, good eye and nice color. Kee
 07/15/2002 12:41:00 PM
Very cool pserspective, well done. It really looks like the statue is flying.
 07/15/2002 10:18:00 AM
Cool ! Looks like Superman on ice LOL

07/15/2002 09:46:00 AM
Nicely cropped, and I assume rotated.
 07/15/2002 09:29:00 AM
cool! and very nice texture ; ) but why didn't u crop the metal holding the bal!?
 07/15/2002 08:50:00 AM
Awsome photo, too bad there has to be so muct of the glue/attachment thingy in the frame.
 07/15/2002 06:32:00 AM
Nice 7
 07/15/2002 05:24:00 AM
Great angle. good exposure but bad lighting. Would have liked more lighting in the face and less on the body.
 07/14/2002 11:01:00 PM
What a neat feeling this gives!
 07/14/2002 10:39:00 PM
