Vipermike Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #1 · #258: Freedom of Choice Thank you all for the kind posts on the "Eden" shot. I feel better about this entry. I hope you do to. Before there was "Eden" there was "Freedom of Choice". Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 05, 2007 at 11:29 PM

Jim Schemel Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #2 · #258: Freedom of Choice Of course that freedom of choice would have been in the spirit realm and there was no bible then Nice shot though -Jim Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 06, 2007 at 12:21 AM

nlamendo Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #4 · #258: Freedom of Choice Your first shot was great, but so's this one. The lighting, composition, and focus are all perfect. Well done. -Nick Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 06, 2007 at 01:48 AM

relms Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #5 · #258: Freedom of Choice The theme notwithstanding, this is an awesome photograph, Mike! And as to the theme, you have summed it up beautifully. While most of us are clamoring to come up with one decent entry, here you are with your second. Now, that's sinful! Regards, Robert Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 06, 2007 at 02:52 AM

Vipermike Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #6 · #258: Freedom of Choice Thanks guys! Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 06, 2007 at 03:18 AM

MarcR Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #7 · #258: Freedom of Choice From the thumbnail I knew it was yours! (though I was puzzled first, since I had seen your earlier entry already) You really have a unique lighting style. Well done with the blade. And the bottom-right light counter-balances nicely.

ironabike Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #8 · #258: Freedom of Choice Nicely done--again!!! As always, your composition, color, creativity is next to none . A treat for our eyes. Jane Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 06, 2007 at 05:53 PM

hhski Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #9 · #258: Freedom of Choice Another great entry. Wish I had your problem this week. I am more partial to the other entry although this is perfect in every detail as I look at it. I am guilty of a sin this week ENVY! Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 06, 2007 at 06:37 PM

Philly Rains Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #10 · #258: Freedom of Choice Hi Mike! Well, as it's been said, this is an excellent capture in all respects, but I miss the snake! Still, beautifully done.....lighting, concept, and image are perfection! Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 07, 2007 at 08:31 PM

Flibble Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #11 · #258: Freedom of Choice I like both of your shots. Colour and tone here is excellent. I'm rubbish at interpretting stuff, so is this saying embracing the knife is not being true to the bible? Sinners chose the bible over the knife, or the other way around? Told you I was rubbish. Anyway, Matron says I should stop blathering and commend you on a finalist shot. Splendid. Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 07, 2007 at 09:54 PM

Vipermike Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #12 · #258: Freedom of Choice Hi guys! Thank’s for the posts!!! Flibble, It is more than welcome to interpretation. That is what I would hope but my message was a simple one of choice, the knife representing "evil" and the Bible representing the "good". I guess I was trying to portray the basis of "sin" rather than a literal representation of the word. Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 08, 2007 at 02:20 AM

Medowlark Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #13 · #258: Freedom of Choice Mike, I had a rather gruesome interpretation which I will just share. "Choice" mixed up with "Freedom" led me to abortion rights. There is the knife or the bible.... Enough!! Obviously a powerful image. al Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 08, 2007 at 03:08 AM

Jazno Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #14 · #258: Freedom of Choice Perhaps "Freedom of Choice" also refers to the openness to interpretation as well. I think in your pursuit of portraying the basis of sin, rather than a literal interpretation is simply excellently done. A classy, timeless image. I do, however, have one critique. This seems to be a non-denominational, timeless image, except for one thing. The statement of "New International Version" seems to stand out, almost competing with the Bibles real title/intention. Perhaps for this image it would be advantageous to remove the translation information? Merely my opinion though, these just keep getting better!

Patricia March Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #15 · #258: Freedom of Choice Mike......Just excellent! Great light and comp! You have come up with 2 wonderful entries!! Pattty Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 08, 2007 at 05:48 PM

Vipermike Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #16 · #258: Freedom of Choice Thanks Al and Patty for sharing your thoughts. Jason, I had to agree on the binding text "New International Version" as well. Thank you for reinforcing my initial concern. I have removed it from the image. Thanks guys! Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 01:55 AM

Pete Kruse Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #17 · #258: Freedom of Choice Gorgeous shot. Very nice detail here. Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 02:57 AM

jimiwheels Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #18 · #258: Freedom of Choice This is an absolutely amazing shot. I have seen your work before and always thought it was great... amazing even, but this is goes beyond your usual brillance. Your lighting, composition is always great, but the symbols you chose to portray the subject (and theme) are perfect. Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 03:42 AM

Strad Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #19 · #258: Freedom of Choice Simply beautiful, Mike, my friend! Perfect lighting and composition. Another great photo to add to your collection. Bravo! All best wishes, Endre Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 08:17 AM

cennerfelt Offline Buy and Sell: On p.1 #20 · #258: Freedom of Choice I very much like llike this, great concept and lighting. Christian Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 10:34 AM

Bill Sutherland Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #21 · #258: Freedom of Choice Technically beyond reproach (almost - no one's perfect). However, I still think your first post was way ahead of this one in every sense. Best. Bill Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 10:43 AM

Tom Basore Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #22 · #258: Freedom of Choice Beautifully shot Mike...I did like your corn snake image though. Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 09, 2007 at 04:18 PM

Philly Rains Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #23 · #258: Freedom of Choice Way to go, Mike!!! Another finalist, and that makes how many in a row Good for you!!!! Edited on Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM Aug 10, 2007 at 05:02 PM

Debbi Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #24 · #258: Freedom of Choice I love the lighting on this Mike. Would you share a setup or at least describe how you lit it? It's good on so many levels! Debbi Aug 13, 2007 at 11:23 PM
