Holy Cr@p Batman! I'm catching up on the wip's in the forum, and hadn't seen yours yet. This is great. Believable pose, nice subtle dof, and clever visual statement. AgentSmith

this rocks man--love the idea and DOF is workin great

First itme in a long time that I used Bryces' DOF and not in Post-work

This is such a neat idea and well realized image that I feel a little odd offering a criticism. I honestly think the DOF is a mistake here for a few reasons. One it reduces the scale of your image. These clocks need to be BIG and our friends efforts ineffectual. We are used to dof implying small and close since it is an optical/photographic effect. Two: you have placed your figure, an essential part of the action, out of the plane of focus. This doesn't make sense in a photographic or visual sense. Maybe this sounds a bit pedantic but I really like your work on this and other images and am trying to be helpful. Thanks for listening:) Ed

Same as your first posting: the idea and the realization are superb. And this has improved. Wonderful entry. Peter Parker

Great entry ICM I like it as is and wouldn't change a thing.

I would change it...I would really lighten up the sky and put the POV way back. Maybe make the clocks small (wristwatches perhaps) and don't make the guy look like he's struggling so much. If you do these things, then guarenteed some of the rest of us might have a chance this month LOL Peace.

"... but Captain Jan, Our arch enemies always leave clues..." - from Jan and Dean meet Batman Great! but shouldn't the clocks all have differernt times on them and shouldn't others be trying to pull their clocks hands back or pushing them forward too? I especially like the texture on the clock faces! cheers, -TJ

How many tasks do you have in a day? Need to be 2 places at once? Something happens when you're not around, but if you were there could have prevented it. The perception is all ours, time does not move, we just percieve it does, it's constant, static, all one. We call them minutes, seconds. Gives us something to grasp the thought of losing ground in our existence. Ok psyco ramble done...for now. MUHAHAHA

ICM, I had a slightly different take on it - as a lot of people get older they would do anything to pull back the hands of time. An interesting piece that can be seen in more than one way. - TJ

What bulldawg66 said - this is too good. Give the rest of us a chance! Great job...
