Kind of an "oxymoron" statement, isn't it? LOL Still, it's a statement if one were to look deeply enough. I like the concept of this shot! 8

WOW! Getting a shot like this with the poster behind him!!! Really well captured!!! I think it would have done terrifically well in b&w as well but, this really was a fabulous capture! 9

This is a really nice shot but, why so small? It would have shone in a larger size! 7

Cute! Wonderfully photographed. A little too staged but, meets the challenge criteria 7

Great concept...love the photography itself as it's very well done but, it seems a little too "staged". 8

Love the way that you cropped this and the meaning behind the crop! It says to me, personally that the person is not the "poverty" but their outstretched hand and the amputated limb IS! Nicely done! 10

I didn't enter this challenge because I couldn't come up with a concept for it! So, I have to say that I thought this was ingenious actually! And, while I had no idea who this shot belonged to while voting, I can honestly say that this was a great shot and concept.

For someone who is going along, TRYING to find something to create a negative comment, anything is fair game!

The voting in here lately has been really "off kilter" as have some of the comments. I have no idea what has been happening in here but, I can say that some people wouldn't know a good shot if it came up and hit them in the face! :)

And, the routing comments were so helpful, were they not?! ;-)
