Who ever thought a photograph of a toilet could look this good.

Thanks for the vote. I figured I'd get half and half for and against it.

hahahah, thats one amazing shot of a toilet, you did everything right in this pic, but the pipes in the lower right are sort of distracting.

I have to admit this is a very good photograph of a toilet.

This is just so wrong--great photo though.

Wonderful textures working for you in this shot. I like your choice of post processing as well, gives this shot real emotion. Well done.

I'm a bit offended by this picture un such challenge, although technically I like this photo very much. Especially the surface details and lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/13/2006 12:42:15 PM
love the sarcasm in your entry, it fits the challenge, but is SO out of the box. I bet you've had a couple comments about DNMC, but I don't care, like it anyway:D

great PP.

bonus for humour :) Well executed too.

All hail the porcelain god! Hmmmmhhhhhhmmmmmuuuuugggggggggggwwaaaaddddd!

Well done post processing. But... its a bad cliche in a (generally) very respectful challenge. I'm all for thinking out of the box, but I feel like this challenge called for a certain amount of respect, which this photo does not give.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/12/2006 08:23:29 AM
I don't think many people will think this fits the challenge. The green grunge look is interesting
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/12/2006 05:37:02 AM
I dont think this suits to basic editing, but the work is great!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/12/2006 05:17:08 AM
Great lighting and texture, way to go
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/12/2006 03:35:24 AM
Perhaps if I had a sense of humour? Should feel at home where I'd send it...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This probably won't win 'cause of the DNMTC factor, but it is the only 10 I have given. The textures, lighting and overall feel are just fantastic. I would love to know how you achieved this in a basic challenge.

Interesting twist on the challenge. I feel like this is very old and I like the textures.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/11/2006 12:11:17 PM
Ha! I love it!

The angle makes the bowl lok a tadstrange. I like the uso of colours. Focus is good.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/10/2006 10:51:16 PM
I knew there would be at least one of these. the colors are awesome. great photo.

Somebody actually did it!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/10/2006 12:02:05 PM
I wondered if anyone would actually post a pic like this. I like it a lot. Very well photographed. Love the colours

And I've prayed to that god many a time! Nice looking shot, but reaching for the challenge. Still giving it a 7. A cleaner whiter bathroom would have been better.

One of the best pictures I have ever seen... i am afraid id going to be DQ because of the heavy burning
A 10 from me

 05/10/2006 08:01:51 AM
damn nice toilet shot, but not sure if you will do well in holy places
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/09/2006 10:18:54 PM
This is my favorite so far. The connection is perhaps a stretch but the look of the photo is great.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/09/2006 08:38:24 PM
YEAH, baby. Figured out how to make a toilet work in the challenge. RIGHT ON! LOL
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/09/2006 08:29:33 PM
hmmm - well it does have a hole.....a rather decent size one at that. The pp is really good. Crop seems a bit tight for a place of worship - even if it's to worship a porcelain god. Overall a good image
