Just about works. Niche market!

F#ck yeah.

bold.

I don't like shoes on the beach, either, but more than that I don't care for the suggestion of fowl language across an otherwise pretty good picture.

Perfect theme for a postcard....LOVE IT....
11/24/2006 04:21:32 PM
Disgusting and totally immature!
11/24/2006 11:23:28 AM
LOL! I can definitely see this as a postcard.

It's a nice idea, but profanity is not always appreciated.
11/21/2006 11:59:03 PM
one of my favourite places in the world. :)

I'm not really sure I'm a big fan of the black and white for this photo. When I think of the beach, I think f bright sunshine and color.

dane cook is a silly bitch

Now, I could imagine sending one of these, but perhaps not to my mother!

Love the shot, but the words are just silly in their attempt to shock.

I'm all for freedom of speech, but i would have used a more civil wording. It really detracts from an otherwise fine image. I'm sure this would sell well with giddy Spring Breakers to send home to their roommate.

bonus points because this is so far the only postcard i would actually think about buying.
11/20/2006 07:11:27 AM
language doesn't help here
11/20/2006 05:30:41 AM
Made me laugh-really creative and I believe you'd see this in shop. Excellent.

Nice shot. I've been to Wrightsville beach and I like the way you mangaged to minimize the number rocks (there were a tone of them rocks/shells). From a postcard perspective, it is good. Score: 6.

Your consumer base would probably be very limited. I can't see sending this sentiment to Granny (she's cool, but not THAT cool)
Good use of B&W.

He he...I like it, because there is a market for a postcard with this caption! You're probably getting some SH#T for it, huh. I know many friends who would by it just for the caption. I could actually picture many of my friends sending me this photo, and me laughing my ass off when I got it.

Oh, P.S. also a VERY lovely photo as well. 8
