WHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! You did it!!! Great job - no distractions!

What belly button? But why does the 2nd person, woman, have her ass on her belly? It's cracked! ~ Lonnnit

Naw.. I think it's a belly button.

Close inspection on the hi res image confirms that isn't a belly button Penny :-) However; I still can't figure out what the heck it is- it will always be a mystery.

Whah? I doubt that is a belly button, but I'll have to check for that on the full resolution image when I get home Penny :-)

I guess it was the clone that helps me notice the belly button of the guy on the far right. Penny Street

Thanks much for the feedback Tom- glad it gave you a chuckle :-) I just spent a chunk of time cloning the rail out (think I need to learn vanishing point in PS), so thought I might as well post it since I agree with tv that it helps the image not having it there.

Made me laugh even before I read the title, then I laughed some more. The outside handrail doesn't bother me at all.

Yes, I guess A little cloning work on that rail would be a good thing Tommy. I'll give it a shot when I get home from work. Thanks!

Too good to let go without trying to clone out the diagonal - see pending. -tv

Great fun shot and something we all need to do :-)

Cheers, Vikas.

Great thought process going on here and the title pulls it all together. What is this world coming to?

Fun stuff, good eye to see an capture this. --mlynn

Well done Brent! I like the splashes of color here and there as it makes the eye travel all around the picture and then back to the gal in the red shirt, which is sharply in focus, and with a nice lines leading right to her! :-) CJ

I'm happy to know you were quite aware of the pattern. As for the rail - perhaps a few steps closer and a wider angle setting? Although, it's not such a terrible thing b/c it mimics the angles supports in the window, and I see now, there is another set of them in the back of the room towards the right. Ok, I'll take it now. :) ~ Lonnit

Thanks Mary Anne, maybe brings a lot of questions to mind? Such as are they doing that for health or to look good, how much energy do those machines use, etc. I have to admit I've wimped out and taken to a treadmill in winter months myself- strictly for health reasons of course ;-) Thanks for noticing the interupted pattern Lonnit- I chose this image out of several taken for that feature. I suppose I could have cloned out that problematic rail, but chose to keep it real (because I don't want to work that hard with my feeble PS skills).

What's nice is that you've gotten the interrupted pattern - the person with the orange shirt. Too bad about the angled handrail, which detracts and confuses, but it's a good shot. ~ Lonnit

Staying fit is undoubtedly a worthwhile goal, but this image says something about our society that may not be quite as positive. Your title underscores that idea.
