The effect looks like neon lights, very nice. Also it was good to put faces to names in yesterday's challenge. Pity, I could'nt participate, totally forgot about it...my memory sucks :)

Beautiful work here.
I was out of synch for the Self Portrait theme. I was pre-posted for about a month and half. Time was not on my side. I only have one more pre-posted shot in queu now...but still no time! I have to decide between visiting photoblogs and posting! Visiting wins every time.

I like the perspective. This series makes me think of "The Matrix" - maybe just because of the digital feel to it.

Great use of neon . . cities can start to actually feel like this . . and, then, the flashing starts !

The treatment of your images is well with the style of the architecture. Very futuristic.

Me gusta esa dirección de lineas que parecen se diregen a un mismo sitio pero que nunca llegarán a encontrarse. Bonita perpectiva.
Contesté a tu llamada para quitarnos la máscara que hay detrás de nuestros comentarios.
