Use cheese as the subject of your photo to make your audience smile.

Let's see -- subject isn't cheese and this doesn't make me smile in the slightest. Certainly an intentionally unflattering portrait, I expect shot with a wide-angle lens.

I the word cheese, where is it seeks? I do not see it nowhere and "maybe tomorrow titrates it" does not make me think of cheese. I regret for the noteluminosity

The pic seems to show the effects of a drug overdose. I think its off topic as well. "Use cheese as the subject of your photo to make your audience smile."

Where's the cheese?

Rough night? I don't get what this has to do with the challenge, at all. :(

Say Cheese!: The old photographer's cliché is now a challenge topic. Use cheese as the subject of your photo to make your audience smile.

I hate to be playing English teacher here or come off as a DNMC critic, especially that English is NOT my native language but dissecting the description makes it pretty clear:
USE CHEESE as the SUBJECT of your photo to make YOUR AUDIENCE SMILE.

Based on the capitalized letters I had the following expectations in this challenge:
1. There would be cheese (even if implied) in the photo (Cheddar, Swiss, Gouda...etc). This cheese would be the SUBJECT of the photo. (Subject - Synonyms: matter, topic, theme. These nouns denote the principal idea or point of a speech, a piece of writing, or an artistic work.)

2. This is open to discussion but by Audience I would assume either the voters, or, someone in the photo looking at cheese

3. the photo would be somewhat funny as to make me smile.

After reviewing your photo, I feel it does not meet the challenge either because there is no cheese in the photo or because it's not funny. Or both.

An image that is very touching and one with a great title for this challenge. Iit negates the challenge description in good taste. Just want you to know that I appreciate it. 7

Did you have a bad day?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I think you will be getting a lot of comments about this being off topic. In addition I think the following is worth noting: the lighting is harsh, especially on the nose.

that is disgusting.and what does that have to do with cheese?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/14/2005 06:45:34 PM
Sorry I don't see how this meets the challenge. No cheese, no reference to "say cheese", doesn't make me smile.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/14/2005 05:53:55 PM
heheh. probably the most original of the bunch, I can see this winning. Kind of tooo detailed, but it all adds to the effect. nice. I see it doing very well.

I almost lost my cheese when I saw this. Sorry, but not, I repeat not appealing in any way and doesn't fit the challenge in any stretch of the imagination.
