Old and young, "passing the torch" of time. A very touching image, full of meaning. It's not lost on me that the old hand's part of the hourglass is almost empty while the other side, passing to the young hand, is almost full. Black and white works well here, making this image timeless and always actual. Congratulations on being in my top ten selection!

Small and big, cold and warm, straight and upside down. Many opposites in this picture which is perfect for the brief. I like the symmetry created and especially the chromatic juxtaposition. Very well done and congrats on your top ten placement!

I have seen and I've appreciated this image before. The young and the adult, both carrying what they can, each according to their possibilities. I particularly like that the expression of the child still seems serene and carefree. Very well seen and caught and congratulations on your top 10 position!

The contrast between the expressions of the lady and the man in the advertisement is stunning, they couldn't be more different, more opposite. She looks bored, maybe even fed up, with life, with her problems. He is vitality incarnated, screaming at the top of his lungs to wake up and live! I might have taken some liberty with the interpretation but this is how I saw and felt it. Very well seen and caught. Congratulations on second place!

What a great image, full of contrasts and opposites. I love that the dogs are matched with "opposite" bones, The textured background is perfect and the two dogs' expressions priceless. I don't know how you achieved this, you must be a dog whisperer... Congratulations on such a creative and effective image and on first place!

Very well caught indeed, perfect moment! THis image could perhaps be a little sharper, in my opinion, but nevertheless I thought it was an earned 3d position. Not only the animals are in opposite directions, but they are also both looking the other way around. Very well done and congrats on your placement!

In this contest I want to see your photos showing your idea of opposites. It could be opposites related to age such as old and young, new and old; to colour eg. black and white; related to shape; or anything else you can think of that are opposites. Try to be creative with your images.
