I Am My Work -- the Thorn that Weeps, & Holds the Sky Entire...

Robt, I gave it a five, yip, it's not a self portrait but on the merit of the photo I could never give it less. In another competition I would have given it at least a 8 to 10. Don't let it get to you, look at my movies and pink and roadsign entries... Are they realy 4's? But that's the way others see it. Maybe one of the reasons why I'm seriously contemplating my participation in competitions. Who do I have to make happy?

Robt,
Great work, a compliment to Adams when people like you produce such wonderful pictures. One day when I am big, I wanna take a picture like this!

Somehow, that rather heavy vignetting makes this seem as if it muxt be venetian blinds - it's rare sunlight surely that focusses itself so carefully? it's effective, graphically, however. I get a sense of missing detail, there isn't that sensation of real close here- processing perhaps?

Boombox? How does that connect to me? LOL... I'm deaf, man...

Great photo there Bear, quality is superb. You know I just may have got who this was by if you included a boombox in the backround, but that would just ruin the whole picture so I'm glad you didn't :-)

And for those interested, "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" by Marcel Duchamp.

one DOES have to shake one's head and mutter... FORTY-FOUR 3's, 2's and 1's? Are they serious? How can this image POSSIBLY be a 3-or-worse? It's sharp, it's well-lit, it's nicely composed, the colors are pleasing, the compoisition is workmanlike, and it's reasonably surreal to boot. Sigh... It doesn't matter, tough...

Not quite surreal but interesting all the same. 6 Another bum for image quality. 7
