I realise the photo has little technical merit. My friends were looking for subject matter for an album cover, and we happened to have a mannequin in our house (long story). So after a few beers we decided to take it for a 'walk'. Didnt take my D70 as wasn't about to risk it. No editing involved, just a point and shoot shot.

Thanks for the positive feedback guys, I thought a mannequin was about as human looking as possible, obviously not much abstract thought involved though on my part.

Happy with the result for my first shot, thanks again.

Way too blurry and doesn't meet challenge. Better luck next time.

The people, hopefully, are animate, but then they do not qualify for the challenge.

Interesting concept. The reflection looks cool. Kind of overpowered by the yellow lighting, and the motion blur is weird, but it adds to the photo. Good luck!

Neat picture but the colors are a bit off.

A dol looks more human than these humans.

Striking image, maybe just in the wrong challenge.

blurry and confusing.

I love the way the image in the poster appears to belong at the bus stop. Well composed and very imaginative.

seems off-topic to me.

...non-human-looking but yet still shows human characteristics...

human subjects

Does not meet the challenge, rules state: "Take a photo of something non-human-looking"
10/12/2005 06:08:06 AM
non human looking?
10/12/2005 04:42:44 AM
that's pretty good. great effect of the ...reflection (?). could use i think a severe crop off the top and the left, just above the heads and at the head that turns. i like the composition, the street in the background with the garbage can, and the slow shutter effects.
