Experiments With My Photography: 'I'm Late'

FIRST Experiements with the theme: Alice in Wonderland

This is a photograph from my first attempt at this particular set. The theme is Alice in Wonderland, but the concept focuses on the Rabbit, who captures Alice's attention.

The stop watch represents the stopwatch the Rabbit carries in the movie.
The background represents the fur of the Rabbit.
The Quote is said by the Rabbit (several times) in the movie.

I love the focus on the stop watch and the scrabble tiles! The image is so crisp and detailed, which is exactly what I wanted! I thought the green and purple were a good contrast, and wacky colours which suit the theme! I played around with the Hue and Saturation layers for a while and decided these colours fit into and work with the other colours I have considered/chosen for my other concept images. I can't stop looking at how clear the stop watch is, I like how the reflection sits perfectly on the edge of the stopwatch! I'm not sure if the dishcloth is the best representation for the rabbits fur!
