Yes, David, the milk is wedged between his ass cheeks, just under the thong. Teehee!

Critique:

Meeting the challenge: I would have never known that this photo was related to milk products without the title, and even then it's a stretch for me.

Composition:
I like the way the person that is the focal point is located in the left third of the photo and that several other persons in the photo lead your eye to him, which makes him stand out in this picture of a group. There is not only color contrast, but contrast through subject matter that tells a lot about the picture. I agree that cropping this photo vertically and including heads and feet may have improved the composition. The flip side of this issue is that the other people in the photo help to explain what is going on with this nearly naked subject, as those around him do not reflect the swimming event well.

Creativity:
I love the way you used the contrasted figures and the expression you caught on what looks to be a very candid photo. And the way you tried to link the picture to the challenge subject was really a stretch of your imagination imagination(;')

Technical Quality:
The image is clear and dof good. No visible post-processing problems. Maybe a slight increase in mid-levels or brightness may have made the contrast a little improved, and a bit less drab in color.

Overall Opinion:
Interesting image, but lack of connection to challenge theme likely hurt your score this week. Hope the guy finally got warmed up!!

Well, I see absolutely nothing here that makes me think of milk. Might be because I can\'t read the headbands....nope, that isn\'t it. There is nothing. Therefore, I score it a 1 simply because it has no place in this particular challenge.
This is a rather interesting photo. Did the fella in the red jockstrap try to whip your butt? He looks a little upset. This would make a great entry if it was on topic. Of course I could be wrong. It may say \"MILK\" to everyone else and if I missed it, I\'m sorry. One vote of 1 shouldn\'t hurt much. (Is he hiding the milk somewhere?)

I think it's a very interesting photo, but doesn't fit the challenge in any obvious way other than by relying on the title. Is it one of those Japanese game shows where they torture each other in strange ways? Very weird and interesting, just not about milk.

Good color, although a bit busy. A bit of a stretch for the challenge as well.

Ohhh looks cold, and the guy with the red jocks on looks like he could do with a hot cup of milk. Great capture. GL

Funny picture; would have been great for the photojournalism challenge. I really find the title to be a stretch though. Jacko. 7

Nice group of creatures. Finding a way to link this interesting picture to the dairy world must have been a tough one...7

Maybe I'm missing the Dairy product in your photo. I looked for it, I really did. The shot as a whole is ok. Nice colors and focus. The angle and framing/cropping could use some attention though. You cut off heads and feet. Is the guy in the red undies your main subject? If so, you might have tried a vertical crop. Right now, the blue coat is taking up most of the space in your photo. Sorry for not seeing how this meets the challenge. Good luck.

Konichiwa Polar bears...!! Wow they look cold. Love this shot.....mostly the colors are just so exciting and true. The focus and light add to this neat shot.

Looks like a baptism we did in Khazaksthan in 50 degree temperature. This must be something simular to be dressed this way on an obviously cold day. Great photo of the people. Love the colors, the focus, the cropping the composition, but wouldn't know it was about milk without the title. I believe to fit the challenge it must show the challenge without the title. The best I could give it would be a 4.
