I am astonished....
I have been researching one of the great masters of photography Ansel Adams in respect of the current challenge.
Well you can imagine my shock when i encounterd this
This is a masterpiece by the great man himself.
So what is my issue here you ask.....
Well I urge you to look at 102nd place in the challenge shadows.....

Now I'm not a photographic historian but I am amazed that nobody spotted this one.
SC your comments please.

Exactly but to steal from a master is beyond contempt |

I guess the comments on the shot are rather ironic, since a few of them say they don't see how the shot is relevant to the challenge...!
SC is on it... |

This is already posted to the SC.
Still a good catch

odd that was still there .. thought it was brought up a day or two ago ...
of course the correct thing is to send it in to the SC rather than the forums ..... |

Ralph I agree I should have sent it to the SC directly, but what is more interesting here are the comments or lack of comments on a photograph, be it relevant or not to the challenge, that was actually taken by a recognized photographic master |

That is a legit shot. If he can send in the original and the exif data shows he shot the photo in the challenge time frame, how can you DQ ?
How do you know he did not set this up with a new model and veggies and shoot this?

Hey Kenskid, have a close look... the shot is identical down to the vains and damage on the cabbage.... |

I know bro...just kidding...however...
The comments on this shot show that Ansel Adams is a lot of hype. If Ansel Adams was so good the comments would have been OUTSTANDING, UNBELIEVABLE, STUPENDOUS...
and it does contain shadows...so it is relevant.
So Ansel Adams only received a 4.6 in a DPChallenge contest !

Again, SC is on it and is already dealing with it (as of yesterday morning).
Also, the *best* way to alert us to things like this is through a ticket by "contact us" under "help." |
