I liked these, but didn't enter them in the end for one reason or another ...

Great concept Dave - you obviously had a theme in mind - what inspired it? - tell us the story...

#2 is the pick of these and I hesitate to say it, but it might be slightly better than your comp entry...

So why was Rog omitted from a few of the shots??? Is it coz he wasn't wearing a black T-shirt??? :lol: ;-)

Great theme and mood in all these shots, I too would love to hear the story and development behind these shots.

Hmm ok well now that I think back on it this is a little hard to explain, it more or less came from a cross between the idea of people moving so fast you couldn't see them and a sort of faceless / ghost idea I wanted to give. Which I decided would be a good idea to contrast with a motionless beautiful girl :twisted:

Then it was just a matter of playing around till I started getting results :D

On the actual night we started out at Sydney uni, but then the local security guards kicked us out :evil: so those last few shots are from just under the bridge.

I did like that shot better overall, but I didn't enter it because I managed to cut Nat's foot off ... It took me a long time to pick the one I did enter, but I think I made the right choice.
