Ryano, listen.
There is a lot to photography other than shock value. I actually like clay's photo's a lot. He has intensity and I count a lot for that.
I think his flame picture was one of the best I have seen.
That being said, in order to capture the intensity of shock you have to get the tech stuff right to help focus the audience. Plus shock benefits from being spontaneous and not staged. I think its evident by the number of comments that this photo did one of the hardest things and thats grab the audience but lost them because it felt rigged for the shock.
Like pretensious rock like Marylyn Manson sucks but real rock like Rollins Band is intense.
Take that photo of the Vietnamese getting his head blown off. Intense. But if it were staged for a rock album it would have been pretensious. Even if the rock band had actually killed someone in the act! Since it was a photo of a real human tragedy the image was shocking, powerful, provocative, etc..
I guess what I'm saying here is even if this guy got his face punched for the camera just to bleed all over the place ( I once did a photo for an album where the guy drove a nail through his hand..for real) it would take a lot for it not to seem staged and lose its effect.
Overall I like the concept though.

going down the list:
its not overexposed, i adjusted the levels. this is what its generally looked like to me when i throw up in my restroom. except lots of sweat and nothing will come into focus.
yes, i got it all over my camera. i didnt cover it.
my shirt did get pink when i adjusted the mid tone levels. i figured i would settle for that since it made the walls and mirror the way i wanted it.
its ramen noodles and red food coloring, which is still on my toilet.
it was a spur of the moment idea, and it all happened in less than 10 minutes. expect a dead cat in the mail soon, langdon.

| You should have entered this one in "Stopped Motion". Other than the sickening effect it is a good concept. |

| Interesting picture. May have been better if the bottom was not so washed out, but I'm scoring it high for effort. |

| Fitting title, interesting shot, but it seems really overexposed. It does accentuate the reds, but there isn't enough red to make it the focal point |
|
|
|

| while I can't say I really LIKE it, it scores fairly high because it's just so well done in a horribly grotesque way. Seems like the flash may have blown out some of the picture a bit too much -- and for whatever reason, the blood on the shirt looks too... pink? It doesn't seem to be quite the right color anyway... |

| Disgusting and badly exposed, but gooood timing. What in the hell have you been drinking? Hope you had some plexiglass or something over the camera. |

| As God-awful as the subject matter is, I can't deny that the photo has redeeming qualities (that was supposed to be a compliment). |

| Lovely. Very surreal. Curious as to how you didn't get that red stuff all over your camera? I like the reflection of the hand on the mirror. |

The photo is great, but the subject matter is disturbing. |

| blatant disreguard for abrupt, hemmoraging, oral miscarraiges in the medical community will in the future lead to flagrant miscellaneous fetal nucleotide defects which can cause further developmental problems in a child's future.. such as texans taking pictures of themselves spitting soup and red food coloring all over their toilet. |
