 Pretty weird looking down the business end of a gun! Standard shot laying on ground shooting up. Wish I could get more contrast in the gun but this is the best I can do in basic editing. PP: Size, Frame, adjustment layers for contrast, and saturation. Saved for web.

Not stupid, it was an honest misunderstanding of the intended message. It's a pretty good shot actually and would do good in a 'Movie Line' challenge.

Cheers

I really don't want to upset you here (especially when you clearly have the drop on me with that gun) but where is the leading line in this image? The technicals of this shot are perfect ... levels ,saturation ,and focus

Makes me uncomfortable to look at this! It's not repulsive - I just don't like looking down the barrel of a gun I suppose. Not sure where the lines are, but it's a good shot.

For me this didn't meet the challenge. However, it's a good stock picture. The wood behind is distracting though.

nice color, like the DOF. The railing is a little distracting
