Damn! Not only do you branch out and take over the brown ribbon industry, you rap out two superbly sensitive shots while you do it. This gives you licence to put on your Pierrot Lunaire costume and sit in the corner with steams of fake tears gushing out of your eyes.
Without having trawled through all the entries, the expected thing would be the obvious clown icon thing - several steps and a ten foot pole removed from the essence of clownerism, i.e. naked emotional naïveté.
Now tell me I can't talk out of my (epithet removed due to orthographic inconsistency).

Oh, the tilted horizon isn't soooo bad. Or it wouldn't be with a little crop off the top. But the guy ... isn't he wheeling one of those distance-measuring things, not a unicycle? On the other hand, that just adds even more to his needing to dream.

Anyway, Jayson, buck up! It's a whole new week. :)

How can you say that it has nothing to do with the challenge? A man about to get on a unicycle and the title "dreams of clownhood"...I think its a BRILLIANT take on the challenge! Much better than all the ugly pictures of clown statues:P Good job man, I gave you an 8:P..maybe a bit generous, but I just liked the idea so much hehe...

Wow, another brown. You go, dude. Actually, this is pretty funny with the potential uni-cycle and all. The gull did a nice job posing for you. Nice tilted horizon too :D

Oh come on. I gave you a 5. Yes, it is a little soft, but it's nicely composed.

Well, you did get the brown, that says something.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't get it. Where's the clown?

Nice composition. Looks a bit noisy though.

I get the connection, but just a bit too far out of the box to make a strong case - not saying dnmc because it isnt, it just isnt far enough into the challenge, plus although the image is ok compositionally it just looks unimpressive. Noise, tilt and drab colour scheme adds to that.
Just trying to be helpful on an image i didnt score to well.

Well, it is a nicely composed image, but a) seems as if it could use some counter-clockwise rotation and b) a bit of a "shoehorn" for the challenge.
