What the hell is this! I just cant figure out.
By the way, the forum page looks great! Makes me feel great to be part of aminus3.

I'm not sure what this is either. Let me take a guess. You're shooting a reflection something at night? However, a nice abstract effect.

I think its a reflection of some sort...Is that your face on the left blurred? Cool shot...anyway this totally depicts a reoccurring dream I have of this crazy elevator. One time you and Jason were both in the elevator with me. I dig the forum idea as well! Thanks for the hard work.

Cool shot - the first thing I thought of with the "EL" on the end is Eiffel or maybe ELevator like Leslie mentioned.

Thanks for the comments. What is it? Well, actually it's hard to describe ... giant 'slides' of see-through plastic with tiny embedded lights. The effect of the faded lights is achived by the reflection bouncing around within the different plastic 'plates'.

To answer some questions, it was taken in the middle of the day at the Paris Auto Show ... it was just setup to be art, I suppose. I don't think my face is in there but you never know. The 'EL' stands for 'Elegant'.
