This is an excellant shot for the contest. I bet it does well. And you commentary was informative as well.

Good shot and a great entry for the contest. Good Luck.

I already have those "curly-Q" fluorescant things in most of my lamps...Nice job on this...BOL...

I saw this shot in the featured images. Even at less than full screen size, I recognized your work, David. Whether it's flies or tornado strewn landscapes, you have a style that can be recognized from miles away. I know that this looks like a simple shot of a light bulb. I also know that your set up for shots is rarely simple. This shot probably was taken using a series of mirrors, a couple of glass tables and at least one orbiting satellite. It's beautiful in its simplicity. As always this shot is perfection.

I was your Caedes friend for years but finally gave up when I realized that there was nothing to critique. What can you say when there's no excessive noise, no oversaturation, perfect composition and flawless focus and clarity. I refuse to simply say "nice shot" and I simply ran out of superlatives.

A thought came to mind when I saw this and read your description... "What will we tell our grandkids about life in our day?" ... I know! We used to use these light bulb thingy's that produced so much heat and used so much electricity that it wasn't even funny. We also had something called tape cassettes and walkmen to make our life more enjoyable... ahh... the good old days. :)

Thanks for documenting this piece of history that will be doomed to the history books soon :)
