This week Team Suck awards the OOBIE for best out-of-the-box submission to a recent challenge to [user]boysetsfire[/user] for his entry in From the Ground Up IV:

Nick, quite often I have to come down here to find you, but this down? They are sooooo crazy... And boring...

To those that think (for a want of a better word) that the camera should have been directed upwards, just look at the shadow which is taking the picture; it's the shadow photographing the face of the lady. So, what Nick is telling is that a shadow is taking a "from the ground up" photo, but you can't have that photo, just this one. That one you have to imagine. That's how I see this nice funny photo. To me this photo is a play, that immediately swept my anger at people who vote, then made me smile, then made me think. Now I'm laughing again.

Now this is for making a shadow the superstar for making the lady in one of her, I'd say, private moments, a superstar.


Congratulations, [user]boysetsfire[/user], for such a refreshing take on the challenge!

I am happy to see this get an award, I ran across this one last week and left a comment because to me it was a brilliant shot that was missed by the voters. Congrats!

It definitely was OOB for me.

I saw it once it was explained, but I just didn't get it 'til I read the comment.

Congrats, Nick.

I just wanna say congrats on getting the brown with a photo that is neither technically awful nor completely DNMC. That's an accomplishment in itself :-)

congrats, well deserved indeed! In fact, despite his young age Nick deserves an honorary lifetime award for his achievements in this category.

Far out! Good that you were recognized for this wildly intelligent image. I think you getting the brown for your entry was a low point for the DPC votership.
