Nicely done Dan! I really like the blurred fingers and keys moving, along with the strong horizontal lines. The black background makes the silver highlights really stand out.

Beautiful capture, Dan! Those flying fingers look great next to the fine shine of the instrument, and the black bg sets the image off dramatically.

Mary K. Robison 10/27/2004 12:05:38 AM

Dan, I can't imagine how you improved the original...I studied them both a moment ago, and your eye is even more observant than previously thought, if you "caught" anything amiss on this.
You have inspired me to give Kismet another go! :) #871675

Dan J. Holm 10/27/2004 12:09:18 AM

Wow, you're quick, Mary!! There were a few little glitches in the original that kept getting bigger to my eye every time I looked at it. Eventually, that's all I saw. ... I feel much better about this revision! ... Thanks so much for your feedback! I appreciate it! ... Can't wait to see "Kismet"! #871678

S J 10/27/2004 12:11:24 AM

This is gonna be a winner for sure!!! Hard to tell the difference on this one! Great work, Dan! A pleasure to see it again! #871679

Jordi Delgado 10/27/2004 12:21:36 AM

Don't know what was wrong with the previous version, my eyes are not as sharp as yours, that's for sure!! :-)) #871685

Donald K. Cherry 10/27/2004 2:14:03 AM

I'm the same way, Dan...the smalest details bug me until I fix them...I even lose sleep thinking about how to make it better...well, like Jordi, I too didn't see anything wrong with the original, it's still a wonderful shot! #871732

Paul Michko 10/27/2004 2:22:04 AM

Gerda Grice 11/18/2004 9:43:57 AM

Dan, I just love this very daring and wonderful image! You broke all the rules (rule of 1/3s, don't cut image into 1/2s at the centre, don't centre, use diagonals not straight lines, etc!), and you came up with a truly superb image! Only a real artist would be daring enough to try this, and only a wonderfully skilled one could pull it off successfully! You've pulled it off brilliantly in this superb image! Many congratulations on your very well deserved win! #923700
