yeah im not arguing with that, when i saw it i knew it would be a postumous ribbon, just for a no colour shot in a colour specified challenge, and thats not a bad thing, but as has been said its very north american based, same as me using a royal mail post box or an old red telephone box. that why it has no red relevance to me. so unless ppl know the brand they are like many did going to vote you down for having no red in a challenge stating the main colour being red.

Well, I'm not so sure about that. I love to express color in black and white, it's not that far fetched. The RadioFlyer is iconic, although I knew it would likely strike a cord primarily with North Americans.

Being 23 years old and from Australia, I had no idea what this image was of, and that it is typically a red object, but submitted in black and white. After reading the other comments, I still stand by the low score I gave this, as I didn't get any "red" from this, which is what the challenge asks for. Wrong audience, I guess :)

I could not overstate my dismay at the prevailing reactions to this photograph. People who think like that have no business owning an instrument as powerful as a camera. And that's no idle observation: I mean it.
