I would penalize this for not really being street photography, but I appreciate the sarcasm just too much to low vote this. I think this one deserves my blue shoehorn for humor.

Pity you should think like this. Now you are penalizing those who vote with discretion. I understand how you might feel as Im new here and have been on the recieveing end myself. I have however resloved myself to take things I want to take of and try and be creative in my own sphere. Dont let voters cramp your style. 6 since exposure and comp works well for me but lacks interest and creativity.

A 10 to offset all the 1's you will get later :)

I love the texture, but I dislike your attitude. Good thing we only judge picture quality.

Your title made me give you a 10. Great composition as well

LOL okay...I guess I am new here. But this is funny. The title is a bit forward, but it is fun. Wonder what would have happened if you just photographed the street and curb without the paint, but in color though it would look black and white?

They're a strange lot these voters!

 07/15/2009 05:31:57 PM
do they now? -2
(P's this is asphalt not a street)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/15/2009 02:32:10 PM
ironically, without the title this would have been great. I hear you 100% and have similar frustrations. still giving it a good score.

What if they also penalize too literal?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/15/2009 10:08:48 AM
Wow, bitter much?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/15/2009 09:08:28 AM
Bonus points because thats the best title ever! 9

How can I be sure this is not a road, avenue, drive, lane etc. without evidence how do I know whether to DNMC this or not :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/15/2009 07:02:58 AM
Hmmm...I don't know, I would say that is a road... : P

Yep, this literal interpretation will undoubtedly be on the front page. ...the front page of "Accidental Shutter" magazine! Bwaahaaaahaaaa.

Hahahaha, this is awesome.

 07/15/2009 01:20:48 AM
Haha, funny title! Still...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/15/2009 01:02:12 AM
And ...I do appreciate this photo, its decent abstract work, but the title suggests you asked for a low score.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/15/2009 12:48:32 AM
hmmm now that looks more like a road to me so it could be a DNMC... lol
