Yes, this is rather surreal, reminiscent of Magritte. --Garrett

Nutjob's and Julian's comments are totally correct for that context, but Rod really hit the spot for recognising I was going for the surreal approach. I found the limits of this challenge quite enjoyable and had to work hard to do something that satisfied myself.

I really like this shot, the long shadow & the great sky. I like the subject facing the camera it adds a surreal disturbing touch which helps make this shot. Well done Iso.

I agree with photonut. The sky in this picture is fabulous though.

I really like the concept of this photo, but I think it would be more realistic if you were not facing the camera, it looks more natural if you were looking at the field or sky, with the umbrella ready to do its job. Did you take any other shots?

Good B&W photo!!

Just my 2 cents...
