I like this one most (from the series). I guess that's because it looks like circle, not half of it.

Thanks Raf. It is very interesting how changing the light or camera position ever so slightly can have a dramatic effect on the final result. All the pictures were processed the same way. I used the same materials, lit with the same light and taken with the same camera.
The inspiration for those was the work of Jaroslav Rossler (I believe I have something about him in my early blog entries) and what I tried to do here is get the same feel as his bromoil prints--gritty grainy and soft focus. It is quite hard to take a piece of paper and shoot it and make it interesting--Rossler is a master in this respect and in other respects of course.

Thank you Rob. It never ceases to amaze me how simple things often hide so much complexity.
