Yes, simplicity is the key of this photo, I think...fantastic job with the light, Ray!

superb and simple - two very strong virtues!

Guest 13-Jun-2005 19:08
strong piece, love the details, excellent tones, lighting and the retrospective

Guest 12-Jun-2005 21:13
nice one - reminds me of the hammers from the 'We dont need no educashun!' video by P Floyd.

Chris Sofopoulos 11-Jun-2005 20:54
Absolutely great tones and use of light!

Karen Stuebing 11-Jun-2005 11:32

Great angle and nice light.

As in "Day of the Triffids"?/.. it does look monsterous.. like it's going to eat through your walls..

David Clunas 10-Jun-2005 22:26
nice shot, your tripod wants to let you know that it's a little shaky though :)
Like the diagonal light to dark across the tripod head

Gail Davison 10-Jun-2005 21:43
Excellent shot. It has a sad feel to it though - a reject tripod kind of feel ;-)

Ric Yates 10-Jun-2005 21:08
Reminds me of the Woking Martian! Great take on a common subject!

Adalberto Tiburzi 10-Jun-2005 21:01
Seems nobody has realized this is a SP Friday...
At least for now ;-)))

Guest 10-Jun-2005 20:58
I love the dent/crack as well as that fantastic lighting.

Guest 10-Jun-2005 20:13
I like the lighting, very nice shadows lead the eye into the shot.

Good work Ray. Like it in b&w a lot.

Adalberto Tiburzi 10-Jun-2005 20:01
That tripod-like Triffid plant with its animal-like behaviour, desperately slanted towards the wall is not only your masterpiece, but also one of the greatest photos ever made.
(imho)
