I gave you a 10 for the picture. The harsh lighting, the blue of the towel, the position on the pan :) and the way your head and hands are held really did give an impression of disappointment or despair.

Hey, you are right Pawdrix! we should eliminate the ribbons for the Failure challenge! DQ the top three for DNMC!

Heh amanda... very nicely done. This was an outstanding image that uhhh stood out in the challenge. A great example of a pic used to capture an emotion and elicit thought.

Just flip the list - last is new first.... :-)

I gave this my highest score - thought it was a great concept.

LMAO! I was hoping!

I figured it would fare (spelling?) much better than a pic of my bf finding the test from the bathroom garbage... it was also quite an adventure buying the test, as we live in a huge college party town, and it was 2 in the morning, right when the bars get out, the ladies in our 24 hour wal mart were giving us that disgusted look, lol... seems most of my photo time is done that late at night, I haven't been getting to bed till 3 or 4am since DPCing took over my life, that's ok though, cuz summer school starts tomorrow, until june 29, then another summer break till fall
