Vinji, I understand you a a newbie. Don't accuse people of cheating before you look at their SBS. This is one of the coolest entries I've seen in this contest. GL!!!

Oh, and author for future reference, if you use an image of yourself in your entry, don't say it's you. It's against contest rules. You might want to change the title. I would REALLY hate to see this fabulous entry removed for such a technicality. Reply »

great work author! GL! Reply »

Great image, Like that you have cut the grass from the first image, thinking ahead, well done Reply »

Excellent...IMHO just a hint of color would make this better, but it's still a great job! Reply »

Thank you for your hint. Actually I tried the color version before deciding to convert it into BW. This one is more impressive in the aspect of showing the depth of thinking. Reply »

Fantastic image.. super creative! High marks Reply »

Great work! Reply »

This is extremely clever...very well done! Reply »

Fantastic idea Reply »

I agree, this has far more impact as a b/w than it would in or with color. Reply »

Cool effect Reply »

Thank you guys. I was worrying that this work doesn't show the true droste effect by its definition because we can't see the infinity here but my idea is we can imagine that by other angle, it's absolutely infinite. Now I feel much more confident ^^ Reply »

It's true that you can't SEE the inifinity, but it still is. In inifinity, you can never see the end, even though you still know that it's there. Reply »

You can't see the end of the infinity but that's because you covered it up. Clever idea. GL! Reply »

Congratulations on the top-three place! Reply »

So cute! Reply »

Great work...very well done Reply »

hahahhaa funny Reply »

Lighting situations dont add up here, makes it akward to look at good idea though.

Edit : There is just nothing about this that feels real, sorry. Reply »

Well then can you at least give me an idea what to fix? I ran into the same idea but I didn't know what to do. I just assumed it was alright since there's no clear direction of light source and everything has the same color and brightness.

Oh and "awkward" is spelled with a 'kw.' Reply »

Thats how i wrote it . There is shade @ the top of the camera and seems to get darker to the right, yet the shadow on the ground goes the opposite direction :P Reply »

Okay, fair point. I'll try removing the shade. BTW: Cheater! The edit feature is handy, isn't it? Reply »

Alright, I brightened the top of the camera. Any better now? You have to remember that I have no clue exactly where the light is coming from, as it could be coming from the back just as well as from the top. I'm trying to keep lighting as neutral as possible because of this, though it's hard considering that the camera is slightly over exposed in some places. Reply »

Sweet! Reply »

Yup looks better, nice job Reply »

Look great to me! Reply »

Congratulations on the top-three place! Reply »

I've been in love w/ real fractals and art that looks like fractals for a ver long time. Very interesting Reply »

Very nice work...gl Reply »

CONGRATS!!! Reply »

I like this one very much! The background gives it a magical feeling. Love to see a high res. Reply »

VERY nice, indeed! Hansel and Gretel come to mind, for some reason. Reply »

looks good Reply »

Beautiful. Reply »

Why did you change the background? I actually liked it even better before. Reply »

If childrens were not repeated ...it would have looked like a door way...which would give better meaning to it.... Reply »

The pxl team tell me that i must change the backround because : Reply »

The image used for source 2, the floor and curtain, has been manipulated and enhanced by the author. Rules state:"DON'T use an image that has been previously manipulated into artwork, satire etc, even if it is offered under creative commons." You must replace that image with one that has not been manipulated and is also free of copyright. Reply »

Nice image, obvious background though, nothing really surprising, good luck author Reply »

It would have looked better if the repeated image were more centered as it repeated but it's not too obvious. GL! Reply »

I like this very much...good luck author Reply »
