Silly voters... :) |
oh, it's totally a stretch. i don't even mind the brown ribbon....just don't tell me that it's a bad photograph! |

A couple of days after viewing this I saw hundreds of flies on a discarded fish head. Smelly and a whole lotta buzzin' goin' on. Cheers! In the right challenge you would have had a great chance at placing for a ribbon. IMO. |

Looking for last place, are we? Here's your 1, because this isn't meeting the challenge at all.
Now, having said that, as a photo, it's pretty decent. I like the composition and the sharpness in the face. |

I have re-read the challenge description and have a great deal of difficulty in understanding how anyone could "Satisfy their sweet tooth" with this depiction. While it could be argued that to the fly this is candy, they are not photographers, and as such you would have failed to meet the second portion of the challenge description, that being " by photographing candy".
The technical aspects of this photo are somewhat wanting, the background is distracting and the composition does leave a great deal to be desired.
All factors considered, I have no problems telling you that I voted this image a 3. The image most certainly has a shock value, but not very many other redeeming qualities. |

Oooooh. Very nice catch though. Great shot from all perspectives. |

Interesting photo, but I think I missed something here.. |

Can barely see the flies for the road kill. |

09/11/2007 01:30:44 PM |
uh, no...sorry. It's not a bad photo, per se... |

this pic sure came as a surprise |

Interesting take on this.... lol |

Great perspective! I like it!
I'll be interested to see how this one is received by the other voters :) |

I'll give you 2 points for getting that close. 5 |

a significant stretch for this challenge- i understand we all have different perspectives about candy but... |
|
|
09/10/2007 04:52:31 PM |
Doesn't really satisfy MY sweet tooth. Interesting though because just yesterday I was trying to find a way to photograph some roadkill and make it fit a challenge. |

ok, just a wee bit gratuitous. |

I think this is stretching the concept of "candy" too far. |

well its clear, I don't think this will go down to well. Good luck. |

Lookds like an album cover, and also looks like whatever brush you used in the top-right got a little too busy. |
|
|

Yuck but the pic's pretty good. Maybe too much burning in the upper right corner. This is hardly a picture of candy. |
