 Really simple this one, this thing is on my desk at work and I always fiddle with it, just thought last minute it would look cool with a tongue! not sure if it really fits personification but I really like all the same. I hope people pick up the forked-tongue/anger symbology. Just auto levels/colour/brightness and a bit of shapening, no cropping. Lighting just a halogen lamp from above, I expect to get picked up my shadows (as usual for me!) and prehaps the DOF, but I like it shallow :)

I'm reminded of the movie "Office Space."

Agree w/ liebe, I gave you a 9. Sometimes people just don't get "simple" and assume it is lack of thought

Good idea...a little dark on my monitor, plus a little shallow on depth of field. Great concept...fits the theme perfectly!

This gets me on so many levels. So simple and yet it stirs up so much emotion.

I like the concept. Actually think it would have been more effective without the added-in "tongue".

Sorry I do not see the personification here and maby would have liked a full white background better

Very nice...good job...!

Angry - it certainly is! I think the object would have worked just as well without the tongue, though. The colour and shape convey anger already - great photo!

I'm new guy here so I don't know much about rules on editing, but I think this one
is not aceptable. I'll give you a pure 10 couse I love the simplicity and the idea.
Just hope it serves the rules.

Simple and well done for the challenge - I would have prefered more DOF - especially on the "tounge"
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Great idea and well executed, but in my interpretation added the ribbon makes it sculpture
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/13/2005 11:55:56 AM
good creative eye! now that i see this, I wonder if it might be more effective if the "tongue" came out closer to the middle than the bottom of the "mouth"

VIPER!

I ike your decision to keep things simple with the focus solely on your subject. I think a bit more DOF would help this image, particularly from the tip of the "tongue" to the "teeth". Also I wasn't sure what this photo was about until I read the title. 7

Very nice. Though unhuman looking it portrays anger just by looking at it, and the pic itself is great quality, composition and colorful.
