just caught up with the news of noisemakers DQ what a pity the kid has talent,.
However no one has caught up with my somewhat off colour signature yet I thought it might get the boot, but its still here
I've commented onall entries and adjusted a few scores as well.

Yes you certainly did!! And I for one owe you a big Thank You :)
fwiw...most Americans are probably not familiar with the expression "roots" which may explain you slipping under the radar you naughty Kiwi! |

Originally posted by Redjulep: Granted, I'm new here and not very well versed in digital photography, however, I have eyeballs, and I'm an artist. Based on that let me say that the amount of huddled masses in the Nude Challege is staggering. I'm coming to believe that it's wildly depressing to be naked. The majority of images show people curled up on themselves or staring off to the side looking like they're about to slit their wrists. Why? Though I do appreciate a degree of drama and even some pathos... However, there are some really outstanding photos - as always, and that should give us all hope that nudity isn't so bad afterall. :o) |
Meh.. I'm not entirely sure its a statement about nudity being bad.. or the desire to cover ourselves to hide but perhaps the idea that the picture will be plastered all over the internet forever and ever doesnt appeal. We've all seen those who become famous and the pictures that surface later to haunt them.. or those who have had employers or business contacts who see the pictures and perhaps dont view them as art and thus having a negative impact on their lives.
Then again some people value their bodies exposed as private and intimate. There are ways to still be within the parameters of the challenge while maintaining that intimacy and the gift you can offer your lover/partner or even just yourself.
Everyone has their own reasons for what they do.. cant begrudge them their opportunity to contribute in whatever way feels right for them in the moment.
Having said that all.. I'm thinking Dayum!! Perhaps I should have been more subtle.... just hit 1000 views. *blink*

You do have a point there with models' nakedness plastered all over the internet. And I definintely am not begrudging anyone's choices. It was just that during the voting process, the whole nude thing seemed to get more and more depressing. However, I think I gave more 10s for this challenge than for any other I've voted on so far. In any case - good luck to everyone!! |

0.4 or 0.04? I mean, after all these, votes, 0.4 would be an incredible swing in only 5!
I seem to be doing better over the 2nd day. I might even crack 5.1 eventually. :)
But Pedro left me a terrifically detailed comment and then followed up with a PM! Now that's what I call helping people rise to your level. :)

You left a comment saying it didn't grab you, which was just fine - I appreciated knowing how you reacted. Then you gave me a 7. Man, I wish more people I didn't grab gave me that score!
