Brown calls in top bank bosses huh? Mr. Brown's father needs a bit more contrast though. ;-) Good luck!

Well, it's kind of funny, but you couldn't use it for a stock photo.
01/19/2009 05:13:39 PM
Not an image I would like to look at very long lol. but I do like words "waste not..." and "brown calls" on the paper. a good choice for a prop, very funny.
01/18/2009 09:18:06 PM
Very clever!
01/18/2009 01:54:13 PM
I'm not brave enough to pose myself for this shot and I doubt I know anybody that would model it for me. Plus, I don't think I'd even think of doing something like this. However, it's classic! The stories on your 'Business' paper are too funny and what a coincidence! I doubt it's exactly what they were looking for butt...? I'll still go with an 8

Mind the tie! Great sense of humour and a good picture.
01/16/2009 04:28:24 PM
Lol. Someone HAD to enter it. Nicely shot.
01/16/2009 08:06:43 AM
Awesome shot! 9
01/16/2009 08:03:54 AM
too much information!!!
01/15/2009 08:25:11 PM
hahaha, very creative idea, and one that could be used as a stock photo, although, IMO the oic could use more light...
01/15/2009 07:02:16 PM
I guess he didn't turn to the front page where it is clearly printed,(Waste Not).

:)

LMAO...
I doubt that you would get this approved at a stock agency - but it's a great take on the challenge.
01/14/2009 11:19:51 PM
Now that is different I like it
01/14/2009 10:16:41 PM
I like this capture alot. It speaks volumes. The only thing I notice is the highlights in the top right corner on the wall. It almost looks like you used a wall sconce to light the scene. But overall, a nice effort, IMO.
01/14/2009 09:19:23 PM
This gave me a laugh. Well done.
01/14/2009 05:47:07 PM
Hmmmm.... LOL 9
01/14/2009 04:36:13 PM
LOL!
01/14/2009 12:20:17 PM
Haha... maybe I'm just being immature but the first two words that stood out to me on the newspaper were "waste" and "brown"
01/14/2009 11:53:07 AM
Very funny, could have a bit more contrast but meets the challenge well
01/14/2009 09:35:58 AM
Ugh... Model has guts I guess.
01/14/2009 09:02:07 AM
Soooo funny!
01/14/2009 08:05:07 AM
lol - 8
01/14/2009 03:54:41 AM
Not that I relish the idea, but I can see this on the front page. Well done!
