There's a story behind this one...

Is it a doll/pupper, or a toy? I need to give benefit of the doubt on this challenge. It's hard to tell. I do like the lighting and and expression of this critter, whatever it is.

Cute idea. Maybe the doll is place a little too much over in the corner. I think a slightly looser crop in that corner is needed.

This is a fun one. Thought to maybe use this as my demo sample, but since Canon is a competitor in the copier and printer business...

I like the title. This is why I don't do a lot of portraits of my family. You have to have cooperative models with patience. I can appreciate why modeling is a career and actually takes some skill.

...and that has made all the difference.

Ok, how did YOUR metaphor break the 5 barrier? Probably would have hit a high 5 or a 6 if not for all the metaphors without roads getting lowballed.

His Road

Wow, your metaphor came in even under mine! We are both misunderstood artistes. This didn't come up for me in voting, though I did look at it when browsing the images right after the starting rollover. I definitely got the metaphor, but then my own was also misunderstood. (Perhaps it was that my sign implied the existence of a road that it came in a touch higher?)

As far as the image itself, I think it's decent, and the shallow DOF guides one's eye to the passage on the page. As violinist suggested, religious messages may not always go over well here, and though it's actually a pretty decent shot, it doesn't have any "wow" factor.

...and if I were a male pig, I'm sure she would be very pretty.
