| Boy, THAT's a different take on a gator... Love the milky water... |

| A very interesting composition. We get only a hint of the beast, but know well enough what we are looking at...at least I do. The cloudy murkiness of the water is also interesting...the ancient becomes abstract. |

| Interesting natural abstract. Perhaps a bit too much negative space, but who knows, it might be less abstract without it. (Not voting, at least yet, just commenting.) |

| Good shot but the crop might hurt the score. |

| Very interesting use of negative space. Probably look awesome as a print. |

| Too difficult to interpret. An alligator hip? |

| Nice... yeah, I like it. Bold crop, but that's all you need really. Great tones, you've turned the water into milk (well, maybe skim milk... or something) - bumping |

| I love this. Square frame, neat subject, lots of negative space, all details that I love. |

| Unique perspective. Great minimalastic type of photo -love the detail in the scales. |

| Looks a bit like an alligator or crocodile. Decent shot, but I wish the subject was more discernible. |
|

| The composition is great, it makes us wonder about the croc/alligator - a sense of intrigue:) |

interesting point of view, I give you six for that ;D

| I'm not so sure about this one. It's an alligator or crocodile, but just seeing the middle of it and so much negative space doesn't do it for me. You do have excellent detail on the hide. This looks like it may have been a "Skin" outtake. |

| I'm really not sure exactly what it is about this image that I find so captivating, but you're one of my top 3. I'm certainly a sucker for negative space, so that's part of it. Ah, well. Perhaps it's the undefinable character itself that I love. |

| creative crop you have here, the blown out highlights hurts this image a little. 6 |

| I like the processing a lot. Not sure about so much negative space. |

| So abstract and simplistic but gripping as well. |
|
|
|
03/15/2009 02:55:49 AM |
| Is that perhaps a crocodile or alligator? Good contrast and detail. Is this really the best photo you have ever taken and your favorite hidden gem? |
|
|
|

| Lots of nice contrasts in this old one. |

| The contrast of the skin is amazing.. wish there was more creature in the image. or toes.. |
|

| The detail on this is so incredible. I happen to be a fan of negative space, but that might work against you. Incredible contrast between the milky water and the sharp scales. I love the crop, and how there is just enough information to know what we're looking at. Love this. A fave. |

| Excellent--my mind enjoyed the exercise, my eye feasted on the fine detail. I love a good crop. |
|
|
|
03/14/2009 05:09:37 AM |
| nice detail, and it's brought even more by this being black and white |

| Looks like a piece of jewlery. Interesting crop choice. I think it works. |

I like the minimalism here. So serene and then BAM! so abruptly irregular skin.
Not voting yet. |
|

|

| This severe crop may work better if more in shot & corner to corner |

| It almost looks like he is taking a milk bath. Don't think it will help his skin! I like the texture, and the contrast with the smooth water. I'm still trying to put my finger on this picture. I keep coming back to it. The negative space is growing on me. Maybe it's the black and white. Anyway, every time I come back to it I bump it, so that's a good thing. It is definitely a good study in texture. |

| This image makes me smile. Love the texture/smoothness competition going on here - works well with the contrast/gray well composed and framed. 8 |

| Cool composition and texture. |

| Wonderful composition - love the milky white water against that amazing texture. |
|
|
|
03/13/2009 07:15:19 AM |
| Love the composition and the details of the alligator/crocodile. The water is a little flat. |
|
|
|
03/13/2009 07:11:21 AM |
| wow, this is different. the water looks milky. |

| Lovely quirky graphic - I like it :) |

| Certainly in my top few in this challenge. The milky mist of the water hints at the immeasurable time that your title refers to, and makes a powerful statement about the idea of form and function, and aptness to purpose. Thus about beauty. A living Grecian Urn; a 'foster-child of Silence and slow Time ... beauty is truth, truth beauty'. 9. |

| I would have liked more of the alligator in the frame. |

| A little bright on the back maybe but still an intriguing close up. |

LOL, the last image was the other end of the gator, a quirk of random sorting.
Love the detail and the composition, works really well in b/w |

| Great job bringing out the skin texture. |

| Sweet shot, crocs are naasty. Love the negative space. |
|

|
03/11/2009 04:57:20 AM |
| Just a touch of the essence of gator. LOL Interesting use of negative space. |

| Don't see any sense in this composition, reptiles are far more interesting than muddy water. |
|
|
|
03/10/2009 08:22:14 PM |
| wow. my favorite so far. what an impact this composition makes. |
|

| do I see a new pair of shoes? really like the muddy water against the alligator...excellent tones.. |
