Personally, I like the expression. To me it is the mock expression you make at someone who's staring at you mouth agape. To me it seems to say (coupled with the belly) "What are YOU staring at?" I agree that the lighting is to harsh. I think the background would work if he'd cropped right at the frame rather than letting you see some behind him. Not the best photograph in the world, but not deserving of a 1, IMO.

Ummm the frame, and the guy's body are OK. The lighting is not so good, it really doesn't add anything to the shot. The expression is terrible. I'm not sure what his face is supposed to say, but it looks like he just projectile vomited at the viewer. That was my first thought when I saw it. Not appealing.

"What is wrong with this shot" you ask?

Take a deeper look, not just at his nekkid body and his expression, but the lighting, shadows, background. Not a very well set up portrait in my oppinion.

What was his point with the expression? Is he grossed out by his looks and wants everyone else to gross out too? Not sure why he took this shot.

This is so funny, I like it!

Well, I am really sad because your picture got so low rate... I was one of your 9
What is wrong in the picture? It tells many things... not only humor.

I am really depress, many other good pictures got so few points: I am thinking to retire from DPC or be member and only participate in member challenges...I guess that is the only filter we can apply... usually members have a better knowledge of photos and voting.

What do You think ?

I personally don't think this photo warranted 1 or 2 ratings. I actually voted this a 7. The photo is really funny, is in sharp focus, and great composition. The humor alone makes this photo a memorable one.

Nice and funny shot, well done to the model!! He's got guts, pardon the pun here...

Lighting is almost there, maybe a little more on the RHS and a little less on the LHS.

Funny, but not very appealing photo, his expression on his face is a bit repulsive. :)

Very nice lighting. Good background. Unique and interesting composition. I like it, though I think I've looked at it quite long enough, I'll be going now. ;-)

Oh my gawd, where are the everyday objects arranged in an interesting composition, this is interesting?
07/28/2004 08:42:04 PM
very attractive ;). But 7 because it's daring and different.
07/28/2004 06:15:51 PM
I really the the interplay between the characture and the sophisticaton of the fram. Definately an everyday object used in a creative way. Good job
