He is called the Moby dick...

This is sort of a tribute to Heiða and Siggi and two of their shots. The time was here to tribute Heiða one more time :)

I think this is the funnyest thing I have ever shot.

2 flashes and heaps of fun :)

49 votes that give this picture a 1, a 2 or a 3

I think that is unfair and I believe that people can go *dudu* themselfes for voting it down that badly for just being funny.

Well it just proves that many have no sense of humor.

I am so angry becouse of this.

I'll go along with you that the 1's, 2's and 3's are tough scores. The biggest problem that I see is the lighting. It looks like you had the flashes on both sides of him, it makes the shadows look strange.

Æ vá, við hverju bjóstu eiginlega ?

Ég varaði þig við þessu áður en þú sendir myndina inn, fólk hérna hefur bara nákvæmlega engann húmor!

Takk drengir, þessi mynd skiptir mig nú ekki miklu máli en það er bara það sem pyrrar mig að fólk verður alltaf að hafa eithvað perfect pípúl hérna inni.

Fíla það ekki

Ég er með gott ráð: hvað ef þú hættir að hugsa um þessa mynd og tekur bara aftur svona mynd seinna. Þá áttu að hafa konu í staðinn fyrir kall og lætur hana hlaupa í átt til þín. Svo verðuru að gera aðeins mýkri lýsingu. Þá áttu örugglega eftir að fá slatta af 10 :)

Það má greinilega ekki sýna smá rassaling án þess að fólk fari einhvað að grenja. Ég sé nú ekkert við þessa mynd sem eigi skilið að fá 1 eða 2.

Another nude dude! Man, where are all the girls in bikinis? Still, I wonder how you did the lighting on that pic. The model seems almost detached from the background.

Ha ha! Fun capture. Looks a tad oversharpened though.

As Ahab searches for his whale .... but where is his shadow? The harsh shadow across his back should be noticeable on the ground! Is this a composite?

One of the best I've seen so far in this challenge. Great job. I love the mood in this one.

Strange ... no shadows on the ground ... it'd be more surreal without the shadows on the body. Fantastic sky.

Maybe you should go swimming during midday instead of dusk to tan that white body ;-)

lmao. Despite the harsh light on the guy, giving a 7 just for the pleasure of looking at something original.

Shadows just do not seem right. I really do not know why. The flash makes the skin look artificial. I wonder what it would have look like without the flash.

Oh my, I just sprayed coffee across my computer. This is a riot. Solid shot, nice lighting. The title is the kicker - it's just great! 10
