Off.....Centered

Milton Keynes, UK

I couldn't resist it. I can't believe I've done my 'play on words' entry before my 'serious' entry/entries....hopefully I'll get time to do another few. Comments very welcome. I hope people view this at 'Original' size as it seems to look a bit odd at other sizes.

Phew, glad you guys are around...wasn't sure if this would go down like a lead balloon. I tried with white space but couldn't get it to look right. I'll tell you re: wires if you tell me re: wings in last challenge. Deal? I'm trying re: thinking - got a few other ideas. Keep thinking I should just go out and snap pics though and stop this messing around business - but its kinda fun! Thumbnail looks corrupt on pbase don't u think?

You're really thinking hard about these challenges now aren't you? This is a good original idea Paul. I'd have probably done the framing differently with white space between each image and making each panel square, but then again I would wouldn't I? And thats design talk not photographic talk I suppose.

How is the bulb lit? The terminals are usually wired at those screw points. Wired from underneath? Or did you clone the *off* bulb shot (unwired) over the *on* bulb one (with wires in place. You got me guessing now. I like that. Tell us afterwards.
