Okay this is a little weird. But I like it. A lot.

Simple but nice! Good shot!

OK. They are closed.

Cool shot, very unusual. I like it!

Great metallic feel to this shot with the (IR?) sky and grass compimenting the tones in the silvery pipes and cabinet. An unusual shot and very well seen.

Little bit uninspiring. Nice detail and exposure though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Usually I can pinpoint why I love a shot. I can't pinpoint why this shot just talks to me loud and clear. And for that I'm going to have to add a favorite too. I do know one reason ... the beautiful white foliage in the background is stunning.

Unusual, artistic, strange..
Good luck! (9)

This is so surreal - I like it! I'll be interested to see if this is IR or mostly PP but either way, it's aan interesting shot that makes one think about us having to live underground because we've destroyed the planet. bumping this to 8.

Very interesting choice of a hidden gem of your collection.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Interesting how sometimes the mundane can become artlike ... well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 04:41:12 PM
Intersting mix of nature and man. Looks kinda futuristic
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 02:55:24 PM
Wow, picking this up on a second pass and bumping from a 7 to a 9 - I love how unusual this is and how pristine it looks. When you give the image time, you find all sorts of visual treats - I'd love to see a high resolution version of this.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 02:29:50 PM
This looks like a surrealistic art picture put together from 3-4 photos (that of course is not the case). I like it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 01:57:36 PM
looks very futuristic
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 12:58:27 PM
Wonderful view of these cool looking metallic shapes with a beautiful white frozen background.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 08:01:51 AM
sorry but the background interest me more then these pipes, trying to figure out what the white landscape is

  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 01:10:39 AM

coz of that (8)


brano ;)

I like the choices you have made. I want to walk into that box and make the pipes dance.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 09:03:07 PM
That is just too cool - 1st IR I've seen and I like it.

I like the coloring of this. The industrial feel is interesting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 03:04:35 PM
I just love images that makes you think and wonder :) Presented very well with looks like not much manipulation. Compostion and colors are very appropriate. Surrealistic. Thanks.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 01:52:17 PM
Very surreal and alien looking! Very clear, great composition and the infrared works perfectly here. I really like this, good luck!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 11:32:27 AM
Interesting urban abstract
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 08:32:05 AM
I'm not sure about the composition, but the overall polished, futuristic look, and the bizarre shapes of the pipe things, is utterly fascinating. I like this!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 05:50:48 AM
This is kind of other-worldly - I like it!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 05:22:06 AM
huh...good focus, clean and crisp shot...lacks the wow factor...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 05:11:56 AM
Wow! This really works! Kind of an "Industrial" gone "Artsy"
This is a "Real" IR right?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 05:33:05 PM
Sweet Jesus I love this. This is convincing me to buy a new body and switch my old one to IR. Into My favs it goes and a bumpy! Good Luck

Looks freshly polished. Nice pic with good detail.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 09:42:14 AM
What great whiteness in the background, it creates a very surreal backdrop for these strange tubes, I love the metal against the dirt, great textures.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 05:19:19 AM

Interesting subjects well treated in post processing. Composition has a lot of dead zones.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 05:35:16 AM
very extraterrestrial look. might even have been better without the cabinet
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 10:48:48 PM
uninteresting subject matter but in the full frame it commands attention .... top shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 05:47:29 PM
You made a kind of humdrum subject pretty cool with your work, well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 05:38:53 PM
The Morlocks are nearby! (Time Machine, H.G. Wells)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 04:43:58 PM
I have no idea what they are but looking at this makes me look for answers. Very interesting subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 04:37:21 PM
Like a time machine or something. Fascinating with the IR.

Not voting yet.

I like this! Forms and composition are strong and interesting. Subtle colors work great. There's a pinch of mystery about what we're seeing. Great job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 02:54:24 PM
the IR works here
Just read an expanded "The Time Machine", can't help thinking about Morlocks.
