i love this photograph and...
you're totally right about the baby bird. not as good as your cat. i don't know..it was a snapshot. i saw it, and took it for a friend, who was into photographing roadkill. it was in the middle of a paved basketball court in a park. i have no idea what is coming out of it's mouth...
i think that people would rather see flowers than this stuff..
personally, that REALLY bores me. i'd rather not tamper with the photograph at all. if it's good, it's good...otherwise, there's just something about changing them...
anyway..the cat is incredible. i really love it. nice work:) |

First of all thank you to everyone who felt compeled to comment.
I knew they would range from disgust to wow, but when I saw the cat there was more than just a dead cat. And unlike some who feel this is not art I beg to differ, if all you see is a dead cat your not looking.
The composition of the image tells the story...ie. the double yellow lines, the tire marks, the look of total fear on the face.
The contrast was a problem there is a small area where cat and street tend to come together but when I printed the look is much better.
But thanks will do better with it next time, I hope the matter of well thought out photos continue and once agian thanks |

Wow, umm, yuck! lol
My reaction went like this... "Eww, that's sick!" while remembering I'm a cat lover. Then I think to myself, "That IS a cat, right?!" Then I notice the faint lines in the road and then the tire track imprints still noticeable and let out another, "Eww!" Then I realize I need to read the title. "HAhahahahaa! That's too d*mn funny!!" :-D :-D Thanks for the laughs!
So, umm, I guess I don't have a 'real' critique on this, but it's a hilarious picture with a very appropriate title for this theme! :-) |

wow, I have seen only a handful of images thus far, but after browsing the thumbs I hope yours gets the rating it deserves!
I will give it a 9, would eb a 10 but qulaity wise it's not perfect. I would crop it some and perhaps add a little more contrast.
A very brave image indeed, and hope you don't get too many fuddy-duddys moaning about the subject. What a message indeed.
Can't wait to see who is responsible! (do hope you didn't run the cat over for the sake of setting this up ;)
Edit: Giving you a 10 now ;)

| This is a disturbing picture. I don't think this falls anywhere near the borders of art. |

| The destruction is quite disturbing I am glad its not in colour. Perhaps this cat had used up its lives prior to its ugly demise. |

| That is truly a disgusting picture LOL, but it does fit the challenge assuming that he hadn't gotten hit eight times before that and this was infact his ninth life. Thank you for not putting this shot in color. :-) |

| That is disgusting. Glad you put it in black and white. Cat people, I would asume, will not rate this one high. |
|

10/01/2003 12:18:30 PM |
| Even tire tracks, oh my what a cat loving crowd pleaser. |
|

|
10/01/2003 10:38:26 AM |
| this is reality but it's visually unappealing. the exposure is rather bad also... |
|

Okay, I have to say something on this one. I saw it last night and was disgusted and then I thought, "Okay, it's a photography contest and sometimes there are unpleasant things to be seen, leave it until morning and try again."
Guess what? It's still disgusting. But putting that aside, one, how do you know he/she (how could you tell now?) they weren' t on their 9th life when this happened?
Second the over quality of the shot is wanting. It seems dark and the contrast is not there that could be. |
|
|
|
10/01/2003 09:47:39 AM |
| It's quite clear that the car was run over AT LEAST 9 times. ;) |
|

10/01/2003 09:05:26 AM |
| this is in really bad taste! Surely you could've came up with something better than this. |
