Defiant - Surviving The Test of Time*

Tried to incorporate some kind of concept into my first shot for eligible. Here's all I managed to get for today. Didn't go according to plan though. I as I was some 5min into taking the photos I got a call, had to run. Lucky! Well, two more pics to go. More dominos perhaps ;)

I must be cross-eyed or something, I thought the original was straight on. I like the tilted version better, the original looked a bit static. Though I agree that the degree of the tilt is a bit, just a bit, overboard.

Beautiful in both cases though.

Lee and Rod, Thanks for leaving your comments :)
I wanted the shot to have an aged look to it, so the PP here. Don't usually do this much PP but I think it works here. And the tilt, well I think there's too much of it here but I wanted to get this kind of perspective with the curving OOF fallen dominos in the back.

I don't know where the tilted shot came into fashion but we're seeing too many of them lately. Sure the tilt is something that can make a good shot work but tilting a so so shot as many do is akin to processing tricks to try & make a shot work. I will have to wait for your next two, hopefully you won't be so rushed:-)
