So fun, great title and obviously great capture. Just wonder how much happy or not happy the tinman would be...

As for the image, the suggestive shape of the ductwork would by itself make this one to remember, but the juxtaposition with the textural and colorful background makes the composition really unique.

Regards,

If I really write what I think, I might get into trouble (*_*). Suffice to say that in this case modesty trumps being explicit. Just a big (*_*) from me.

Jack,  Your creativity is amazing and just make one wonder how fast you see potential ideas in whatever banal that funny side of things. In this one my attention seems to be drawn by an interesting semi abstract on the top right. I see a combination of great texture, colours and shape. I am sure you didn't miss it.  Best,

This hose is plugged at the end, so, I cant figure out  what  is  it?  It is a mysterious machinery of  some kind. A good graphic  image.

Only you, Jack! But, seriously, what the?? He even dares to fly his flag behind him proudly, like he is a deadly virus from another planet. This image reminds me of that campy Japanese teen sci fi series "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers". This creature is one f the Nilocks come to invade the earth by foisting upon us one inconvenience after another to feed the ego of their nefarious skeletal leader in his foul smelling boat. That goodness, Jack, for exposing him before he did some real damage!

A photo that can only be made by.... it's classical yours, Jack.

Somehow reminds me of the worms in the movie Dune... probably as quirky a connection as this photo is quirky. But I happen to like the movie, just like I happen to like this image.

Jack, I think Tony is on to something.  Indeed, the Wizard of Oz does not allow one to separate the Tin Man from his quest for a heart.  However, we're not looking at the movie now.  That's fiction; the image's subject-matter is less of a fiction.  The Tin Man actually may have been searching for a sexual aid for his wife.

 

Aside from my drivel above, I am feasting on the incredible array of forms this image contains.  I find the colors to play an assisting role in that respect.
