Looking at the ribbon winners I should have over processed the shit out of this. Maybe that would have gone over a bit better.

I have to say I gave you a 4 on this one. It didn't seem like you really meant it. It actually likes like you might need a laxative. ;D

Not offended. A little bored, maybe. I think you didn't push it far enough. It would be a more offensive, more confrontational photo if you'd been looking directly into the lens with all the name-calling names in the world in your eyes & a sneer on your lips. Change the T-shirt to a plain dark color so we can see your gesture better. Take it to the wall. I'm pretty sure nobody's got nothing but 1-votes. If anyone can, it will be you. Consider this a triple-dog-dare!

I do have constructive criticism for you, but Dale Carnegie's book says it better.

Stumbled across this gem and had a good laugh. Went and looked at the top 10 in the challenge and had a good yawn! Wish I'd voted this challenge, this pic would have got 10

Sweet! A great shot, emotive, interesting, beautiful bokeh, and fits the challenge. Maybe a bit too centred composition for the two-thirds-rule-mongers of DPC and the lighting could be much more dramatic. Achieving the brown with a shot like this is hilarious confirmation of the number of dried up, scaly-cunted grannies voting on this site, LOL! I guess that's why they invented KY, because who'd go down on one of them?

Anyhow, I'm fairly inspired to start entering challenges again after seeing this!

also: why do you think people get offended? I've been having trouble with that one, as I never get offended myself. I don't see the logic to it.

so what's the lowest scoring photo on the site? i've always tried to find that.

Definitely a guy thing, maybe the 'roids. Definitely comradely but suffers from the contemptuous refusal to explore an artistic experience. I admire the bravado and humour, show a strength of character that you can rely on when things get tough, but dont expect votes for that here ;)

Okay, after reading the thread about the challenge I found out that there is a definition of "bird" I didn't know about. So the shot does, much to my surprise, meet the challenge in a way.

But even with this additional information I don't find it appealing and not really humorous.

I think you are wrong on a bunch of levels. IMHO the shot is expertly lit(in a difficult lighting situation BTW from the looks of it) and the focus is spot on. The Bokeh is good and DOF is damn near perfect.

Guess that's why they created the "1" button.

Judging By the look on your face, it looks like you already did.
Giving you a "one" is doing you a favor if it get's you that well deserved Brown ribbon.

Rude, crude, low class especially for a beautiful theme like birds.
