This would have been awesome in colour.

I mulled over instead submitting a color version but eventually found its inherent contrast to be lacking compared to its red-filtered / grayscale equivalent.

I love it! The angle is awesome! I'm still trying to figure out how you took it...
were you laying on the ground? Hmmm

You rock.

eurai In reply to alt-eff-four [2006-04-19 07:20:23 +0000 UTC]

I was laying underneath the supporting beams of the swingset. Rotate the image ninety degrees counter-clockwise and you'll see the shot as did my eyes while taking it.

Thanks!

@.@; Oooh...it makes me feel the movement of such a big swing just looking at it! ^___^ Excellent job, it looks at first like they're swinging on it at a small placid pace and there is simply a void around the swing set; then I notice the way the top of the chains connect. Hehehe. The clouds were beautiful that day, too, and the lighting is just perfect.

Oh..and congrats on that DD!

I thought it was in pencil when i saw in in the DD window, but cool! It must have been kinda dangerous taking a picture like that. What if they had swung down on to you? Oh well.
It's AWESOME.

eurai In reply to Kitty-Princess [2006-04-19 07:36:34 +0000 UTC]

Man -- if only I could sketch in pencil with any sort of skill. I'm a photographer principally because I haven't the capacity to create art so much as I can merely capture what I think is art.

She nearly jumped onto me on a few occasions. Dangerous but certainly fun.

Laid on the ground and -- particularly -- a few feet away from the swing given that I was nearly kicked in the crotch on a couple of occasions when I tried a more direct approach. -_x
