Are you sure? How do you know that I didn't simply photograph a black and white drawing? I did draw it, just as I said, but I assure you that I could easily create the exact same image by photographing an existing drawing. What's the difference? Only one would be a photo.

Yes. Unless what you described isn't what was done. ;oP

Edited to emphasize Mick's words.

I get the feeling Mick will say yes but I doubt actual illustrators would agree. :P

A small point, but an important one. Paper rolls aren't the domain of pros. I'm not a pro and use paper rolls fairly regularly (as do many here I would think).

This is a crime scene. The house has been broken into and ransacked, valuables stolen. On the way out the thief grabbed a cookie. The children are in shock, the incident too vast for their comprehension. Hence they focus on the one aspect of the crime that they CAN connect to; a missing cookie.
I don't see any shoehorn, I see a story! |

What was left off the image for the viewer to infer was the dead mother wearing red stiletto heels who had been strangled to death with her own apron!

Jeeshh!! enough already!! the system is not perfect and never will be. That is why we have a SC so they carry the burden of those decisions nobody would like to make. This is supposed to be a place to socialise and learn while we all do something we like (taking pictures). If you ARE NOT HAVING FUN WTF are you here!!!! The reason I've been away from DPC is because every time I come back to look there is something like this going on.
Someone asked "How do we know about the integrity of the council?" cause they do it for free and and have to put up with all of us narrow minded humans!
Get the best picture you can and be proud and happy with yourself, the ribbon you so desperately want will come whenever you stop looking and winning for it.
uff now that is better...
ETA: We need more blood and popcorn!

You seem to have forgotten bible-belt amendment x7.3 to the constitution - 'the killing of a mother wearing red stiletto heels and an apron during hot weather shall not be deemed unlawful'. So that's not a crime either... |

| was it murder, or did the apron-and-red-stiletto wearing mother commit suicide as a direct result of unutterable grief over the disappearance of her finest, cleanest, highest-thread count cotton sheet? |
