LOL! This title and your expression totally crack me up. Love the shot. I wish there were a little less negative space in the top, but I can see on a poster, your head placement would be perfect for leaving the space for the text. Good job.

If I knew about the poster I would have given this a 10 instead of a 9!! : ) Fantastic reproduction, man!! : )

This is very funny. I didn't realise until reading the comments that it's actually a reference to another poster. I've never seen this before though, so this is very funny. :)

Ok so I looked it up. What an awesome reproduction! Now I have to bump this up.

Like my Dad always said, think before you say something stupid, stupid. Nice reproduction. Good luck.

I laughed at the title, the expression is classic
12/08/2007 05:20:31 PM
Nice composition; colors are a bit muddy but that makes sense in context.
12/08/2007 07:00:28 AM

12/07/2007 07:17:19 PM
Lol! There's a lot of folks that could use a couple of glasses of that! i ove this shot though tI feel the negative space above you could be cropped tighter, nicely done anyways.

nice composition, lights, expressions and great sharpness. helmet size odd though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/07/2007 10:42:48 AM
haha. I like how the colors give it a little warmer feel, and your caption completely gives of the bad attitude vibe.

hahaha YES! perfect shot....9

Cool idea for a SP. I like the lighting and pose, however a tighter crop off the top IMO would have helped. Nice work.
12/06/2007 04:19:53 AM
Great portrait... like a little tighter crop though.
12/05/2007 09:58:49 PM

12/05/2007 03:25:14 PM
OMG! This is hilarious! 10!
12/05/2007 01:39:41 PM
Nice attempt at reproducing well-known poster.
12/05/2007 01:15:34 PM
ROFL! You really should put that title in the negative space of the photo and sell prints. I would buy one!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/05/2007 09:17:26 AM
Hee, hee, put the title up in the negative space, and you've got a great poster/magnet/etc. I can even see it on a coffe mug w/ the words on the opposite side of the cup.

12/05/2007 08:33:26 AM
Nice job! I love the simplicity of this, but the great depth it has. Excellent work.
12/05/2007 07:33:30 AM
This happens to be my favorite saying of all time. 10 for your title.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/05/2007 07:13:01 AM
Gotta say, I dont know who you are but I do like your sense of humour. Far more than simply a 'gag' title though as your expression just underscores the chipy insultiness of it. I am guessing that it is a wall behind you but top job as it looks like you could be standing in the middle of the desert

8 from me

Into my favs.
