Dinosaur's bones, or giant caterpillars, oh well, like the black and white gives the photo character, good clarity, good contrast, nice job

This is quite an original entry into a contest like this, and the photo just looks great in black and white. I like all the fine lines and shapes to be seen in this construction, and also the angle you used when the photo was taken.

The photo is nice and sharp showing clear and well defined details in the construction, and the exposure is perfect. Fine distinctions between light and dark as well.

The format and tight framing is working well, and it is a fine balance in the composition. I think this is a great looking and well taken photo Steve, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Oh I totally agree, I specifically love that you made it black and white because we see the details a lot better, that sky in the background is pretty dramatic with the clouds, this is awesome, good eye to taking a photo of this

can you still fit thru this Top? or are you a lil out shape since you have been relaxing? wink..lol. the clarity is great. the angle of the shot of this weird round thing on the playground is great. the capture of the light is great. the image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

Yes this does have an abstract look and it's kind of surreal. There is nice contrast and clear focus. Very interesting shape. Nice photography here.

Very appropriate for the black and white photo contest. Also, like the grays in various colored gray, the shades of the dark as in the grasses and the white in the circles and steps or rings of the ladder.

Your geometric playground equipment has become an artful statement in this unique photograph. The concentric circles remind me of a slinky.
Nice entry. Good luck in the contest!
