I would have like to have seen this bigger.
02/17/2004 07:47:14 PM
Has more shock value than artistic value
02/17/2004 07:41:06 PM
Disturbing.
02/17/2004 12:15:34 PM
So sad.
02/17/2004 10:07:28 AM
sick, I think this is in bad taste. Just my opinion.
02/17/2004 09:39:49 AM
this is way creepy.
02/16/2004 06:13:34 PM
This bothers me. Alot. Powerful photo.
02/15/2004 08:39:09 PM
this is an intriguing photograph.
i do think, however, that it would be incredible if presented in black and white.
the concept of this photo has been used many a time, but your angle of the shot is new to me.

all in all, good work.
02/14/2004 03:49:46 PM
this is too creepy...
02/14/2004 09:42:03 AM
Sick and morbid.
02/13/2004 05:20:40 PM
Wow, this is a very very emotional shot. I would prefer it to be larger in size - more striking still I think. I like the position of the head in the corner and the casual positioning of the hands. I'd appreciate if you would confirm that this is a staged shot via email if you're willing.

Powerfull image, good lighting, and great colors( except for the salmon formica). However the subject matter is so classically macho juvinille that I scored it low. If you are in fact under the age or eighteen then you will get over it and just focus on the first sentance. If you are older than that, quit the whole flaming deathhead nine inch nails dance with death. It aint pretty and no one wants to watch. Just my humble opinion.

Powerfull picture. But in my mind, this would be "Not letting go" Or becuase you couldn't let go. Just my thoughts.
02/12/2004 01:09:33 PM
picture too small
02/12/2004 06:32:26 AM
?
02/12/2004 02:34:31 AM
This is appalling.
02/12/2004 01:52:29 AM
This is a very strong and emotional shot, I'd hate to see it happen. Nice composition, though the submission is rather small. Great take on the challenge.
02/12/2004 12:30:42 AM
ummm....this is really disturbing. This photo is extremely raw and riveting, but lacks artistic interpretation. Its really just in your face and rather distasteful.
02/11/2004 11:38:06 PM
Good for you for being brave---I did a photo like this like three weeks ago and it got me in some hot water--- this is a lot more realistic than mine and it's very cool.
02/11/2004 08:56:48 PM
Very small shot. You do know you can re-size your photo? It's disturbing to think this was staged in the name of a prizeless photography challenge.
02/11/2004 08:00:03 PM
sad
02/11/2004 06:57:39 PM
Excellent take on the challenge. IMO this is one of the best this week... only thing that bothers me is the size.... I'd like to see it bigger. Just a suggestion for future challenges.
02/11/2004 03:51:05 PM
The subject matter is obviously disturbing in the first place, but putting that aside, the shot is way too small to judge on artistic merits.
02/11/2004 02:37:26 PM
Too small. Can't really judge from this size photo.
02/11/2004 01:00:55 PM
I'll have to think about this one. Disturbing photo, but I might come back and change my vote after I think about it a bit.
02/11/2004 11:52:50 AM
On the small side so really hard to see it. You did capture drama.
02/11/2004 10:12:43 AM
Most distasteful!!!!!!
02/11/2004 10:09:46 AM
pic is very small...too dark at top, very orange overall.
02/11/2004 07:54:17 AM
Isn't this giveing up rather than letting go
02/11/2004 07:15:44 AM
need to have youe image bigger so we can see it...640x480 would be good
02/11/2004 06:54:28 AM
thats sick dude
02/11/2004 05:50:01 AM
I like it!! love the blood! Too bad it is too small!
02/11/2004 05:02:01 AM
Yuch! Pity the photo is so small. Has he slit his wrists? if so a bold entry that might be viewed as distasteful by some though. Personally, I think this kind of subject needs to be treated at a more abstract level and not so graphically to have the impact it should.
02/11/2004 03:03:56 AM
nasty dude. i thought of getting the razor to wrist for this to. only problem is i wouldn't be around to see the blue ribbon, let alone post the picture. nice use of tomato ketchup
02/11/2004 02:06:21 AM
letting go of blood..?
02/11/2004 01:04:05 AM
Thats just grueling....
