Challenge: Unexpected Find (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Vivitar ViviCam 3765
Location: Spartanburg, SC
Date: May 31, 2006
Aperture: f 2.9
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/25
Date Uploaded: Jun 6, 2006

 Ok, I staged this and nearly had a heart-attack doing it! LOL - Set cam on timer, ran and hid behind the bucket and stuck my arm out. I did this about a half dozen times before I needed oxygen! (I'm sooo out of shape!)

I'm sure most of you will see this as a staged shot, so I'm not expecting high marks... maybe even a few DNMC's for staging it... we'll see...

pp.
Crop, auto levels, sharpen.

P.S. This is the same tractor I used for the textures challenge. [thumb]317539[/thumb]

Well the thumbnail certainly got my attention. Not a bad concept at all in my opinion. It might have been better if you had some dirt over your arm to make it look like the bucket had uncovered the remains of a body.

I like this, but I think the shot would be improved with a little more contrast, color and tighter crop.

Fits the challenge and appeals to all the rest of us with a sick sense of humor.

Nice idea, could have been executed better though, why not let him hold something iconic that really implies that he is dead and gives a more sense of story to it, like a gun or an empty briefcase that looks like it´s ben busted open or something like that...
