Challenge: Despair (Classic Editing)
Camera: Sony DSC-F707
Location: Houston Rodeo Barbeque cook-off
Date: Feb 23, 2003
Date Uploaded: Feb 23, 2003

I was at the Barbeque cook off and could barely look at this, much less shoot the photo.
The theme is Despair, and I felt total despair when I looked at this poor little guy.

he actually looks like he's smiling. hehe. looks like lunch to me! color is good, focus and clarity are ok. maybe just a tad soft, not serious thought. I would like to see the whole pig in the shot. you cut off his feet. crop is just a tiny bit too tight. I realize this may have been due to outside objects in the way though. a nice shot. good luck in the challenge.

For the pig, or those getting ready to eat it?? I think a lower camera perspective would have given the viewer more of a participant feeling, rather than just an observer.

Nice and clear image. Good job.

hahaha... I am surprised.

Yes, there's no hope for that pig now!

Sorry...I have a hard time feeling the emotions of food! It is a very humorous idea however and refreshing!

Geezis, that looks disgusting. One time I went to a party where they cooked a pig in a fire pit in their front yard! Was good however. :)

Send it to www.peta.com (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). Perhaps this shot is going to be the next main photo for one of their camaigns;-). Because of pictures like that I am a veggie for more than one year!

This is "crispy", not "despair" !

Beyond despair if you ask me! nice colors. Does not make me want pork for the next little while!
02/24/2003 10:15:56 AM
Absolutely the worst DESPAIR I've seen yet!
02/24/2003 10:10:36 AM
Ye right
02/24/2003 09:18:34 AM
Nope - just a dead pig - I don't think dead things feel despair.
02/24/2003 09:16:31 AM
nice photo. good job.

This is so funny! You've made it look like in one of those cartoons where the pig has been flattened by something and is still alive, his eyes look alive anyway! I think the crop is a little bit too tight though. Did you help eat it afterwards?
02/24/2003 01:49:19 AM
Thats not despair, that looks damned tasty!! Politically incorrect I know but what the hell. I think the pig itself is somewhere beyond despair!
