This is actually a picture of a "Koosh Ball" toy as seen though the end of a paper towel roll. Interesting, isn't it? []

Justin, no wonder it looks like a image taken with a microscope or endoscope, cool![]

Just took this one on the weekend - thought it fit well (even though the closed date has passed.)

Hi Everybody, I just finished selecting the finalists, and wanted to say that, although I was a bit apprehensive about choosing "Darknesss" as subject, I'm now quite pleased that I did -- and quite impressed by all the submissions! So a definitive "thumbs up", and thank you, to all that participated!


And with so many great photos, selecting the finalists for the voting wasn't easy. I tried to put photographic quality, creativity, and "level of darkness" into the equation, plus having a wide range of rather different images, although sometimes it seemed that I might as well have flipped a coin...


Anyhow, thanks to "Whatsreal" the vote should be open soon, and I'm already looking forward to the next assignment ;-)


Ciao, Colin

Thanks Colin, looking forward to the finalists you have chosen! Let the voting begin!

Hello Colin,


After the voting ends I would like to know your opinion of each photos (or at least of each of finalists)separately.





I hope you will be able to block some time for that





Thanks

[Dan Fleming]

As Colin said the excellent posts have been narrowed down a little to 8 finalists. You can vote in the first post in this thread between now and Thursday. Good job to all who participated.
