Photographer's comments

Inspired by the article in the magazine, this is my first attempt. I know I can do better but hoped for some constructive criticism of this effort, so please let me know what you think and thanks for looking.

RE: Media Gallery Detail

Thank you for your comments everyone, appreciated. I agree the blu-tac needs to go, that wasa bit sloppy. I used a Maglite AA torch for the light trails Wez. Tarkoid, this is 5 shots stacked on top of each other in Elements 5 and then used the lighten layers function so the lights appeared from each frame, only a 5 minute job. The hardest thing was setting all the cards up.

nicely executed,i think the composition is let down a little by the quantity of cards used at that angle,less is more.give it a try on another subject.i tried it on a portrait.i used the light trails to create glasses,worked very well.hope to see some more

Fantastic idea which has been fairly well executed. I have to agree with cosmic that the tac lets it down slightly. Definately a 4 star shot!

Great idea and well composed. The only thing I would have done is too clone out the thing holding the 9 of diamonds up on the bottom left corner. Look forward too seeing more! Best Nathan

I like it. The tac used to mount them catches the eye though..
