They sure wrote a lot of waffle in the press release on what they saw in it. To me, it doesn't do anything. Maybe there's some contextual message I'm not getting though.

Wow. (Not in a good way.)

Fantastic capture.
Reminds me of the "crumpled piece of paper" masterpiece I sold to my sister when I was 6.
.... NOT

I hope it looks better in real life, because that little picture isn`t working for me.

seems she is a well known visual artist

When I followed the link I was wondering where the winning photography was ...

By the responses it looks like I'm not mad as they are similar to my views. Max, I didn't Google for winner after seeing the shot but followed your link which did not impress me. It was the same for the single competition judge, I thought the winner was his sister.



Cheers
