    I thought i'd post something a little bit experimental. Kathy advised me not to, but i just couldn't resist, so here it is :-). Of course, i'm very curious to know what you all think of this photo! Hopefully Kathy isn't totally right about this one.. ;-)
    What do you think of "the lost room"?

    is it upside down?

    It definitely looks like it's upside down.. but the light is fabulous.. has a sense of glamour :) -- Seen in my contacts' photos. (?)

    didn't even notice that it was upside down until i read the above comments. i do like the light and the textures a lot. i'm not so sure about the composition though

    I Think this is Art ! AWARD I like it. It looks Japanese, like tea house with a game on the floor.

    it does look japanese, what with the minimalism and the subtle lighting... I would have added some other element, though, to add surrealism to the shot, something impossible, like something that is hanging from the roof that at first sight seems normal and then you realize.... right now the curtain is that element, but it is not so prominent.... I like it a lot though... specially the lines of light somehow coming from the blinds....

    good idea to turn it around, I like the light and tones -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    Brilliant, dude. Placing of the thing on the floor is weird and adds tension to the play on all the lines... Really, really nice, one of your best I think.

    Thanks Boje! Cool! Glad you like it!

    Kris..very cool. I had to download it and flip it to totally get my head around it...sad but true :) I like these type of images.

    David
    Apr 27, 2007

    Totally cool. An unusual view of the ordinary makes this an awesome picture. A series of such pictures would make for a great project:)



    Now if you could have Kathy hang upside down from the ceiling while you take the picture, then you'd really be in business!

    You're the man, Kris. The ambient light here rocks.

    Nice choice to flip it and the processing is spot on.

    We once glued someone upside down, so i know it is possible!!! He didn't stick very long, but long enough to take a picture :-) If I remember the brand of the glue, i'll let you know ...

    It's good, but there's something not quite right about it. I can't put my finger on it...



    Haha, how does that help you at all? It would've been better if I'd just written nothing :)

    I like it. It's a reminder to all us shooters to consider that option -- rotating the image rather than the camera :)

    Absolutely stunning. The soft light and the colours work really well together. The lines and shadows provide lots of interest. Very nice indeed.
