1st Place - Dreams and Memories (*)

Imagine every image you've ever seen in your life, imagine every memory you've had. We remember some past events more vividly than others; some are in black and white, a silent movie in our heads. We remember the sounds, the smells but most of all the sights. Our heads are full of images - we have photo album after photo album of people, pets, things, places and things not yet seen, not yet imagined, not yet described.
What would we see if we could peer at those albums through our eyes?

Canon PowerShot G5
1/2s f/3.0 at 28.8mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

awesome nico, this is very well done. i like the effect around the eyes and the attention to detail is great. i´d be interested to know the process of how you gradually and selectively desaturated/overexposed the outlying areas after the challenge. good job.

Great idea! And of course, very well executed. Rafa Spain.

I cannot quit get over the creativity you have. The perfection of leaving just the little area around the eye orangish ..with the reflection in the iris of a photo album. Absolutely amazing and perfect.
