how many do you recognize if you do it would be interesting to get a comment on it

I could recognize quite a lot actually.
I didn't leave comments because I'm not sure what to say.
If I simply left a short comment like "Bob, you look silly in that pose",
it's not very helpful, is it? hmm...

Funny, I was thinking of this idea too. I'm not sure how many people I would recognize.

Well Arti-Elvi...we know which one is yours; ) The 30 day Self Portrait must have been a big help!

Great shot anyhow!

I already mentioned in another thread if I don't recognize you I'm voting DNMC. :P (joking)

I know, it would have been more fun to me if people didn't recognize me ;)

Thanks for the compliment!

So far I recognized 17 DPC-ers, I haven't vote on all entries yet.

@Yanko: Lol!

I'll be the hardest one to get recognized. With turban on my head, I easily get lost in crowd ...lol. Keep looking for me ;)

...oh yes – I’m planning to put reward (just for “recognizing” me. I’m not the one who needs to be captured … unless its on roll :)...lol)

Hehe, gonna try and vote on this one and ONLY comment on those I recognize, guessing which one it is.

I myself have already gotten 9 comments (my score does not reflect the many comments though, hehe) and 4 of those recognized me, and I just can´t figure out HOW! All four people have never ever seen me so what the f*#k? No way you guys recognize me from my profile shot, it´s more than a year old and I have gotten older and moldier! Besides, it´s only 90x120 pixles :)

I have not been recognized yet - at least not that anyone mentioned in the 4 comments I have received so far.

Larus recognized my before in the Color Portrait challenge but it may be a bit more difficult this time - but it should be doable... :)

I've had 7 comments and 2 favs, but still not recognized. I'm surprised. Was sure everyone would yawn "oooooooooh there's cindi". lol

I am fairly sure I recognized you Cindi but not 100%. I actually yawned "oooooooooh, is that Cindi???" ;)

If it was who I thought it was, I left you a comment already...

:-) You left me a nice comment Are ... veldig koselig.
Btw, since you are norwegian, have you travelled with Hurtigruten and do you live anywhere where it sails?

Edit: Guess not if you live in Darbu close to Kongsberg ;-/

I'm not good at recognizing people in a crowd, the same thing is kinda happening here. I do see some faces I recognize, but having a hard time putting usernames with them. There are some exceptions.

LOL I think I'm going to be spending the week bouncing between people's portfolios trying to decide who is who!!

You are right about Darbu now but I'm actually from Stavanger so yes but I have never been on it before. It won't be long though. Actually; Hurtigruten would be great for photographers and would give many great photo ops.

I'm glad you saw my comment - nice picture! :)

I am counting the days, we sail from Bergen on June 26 and we are taking the whole 12 day cruise. It truly is a dream come true. And I am sure I will fill my memorycards every day.

i dont recognize that many, and someone i think i know could be one of two photos. only one person commented that they recognized me.
05/19/2006 08:13:42 AM · #18
No comment from Are yet, but I did get named in one comment now.

I'm working my way slowly through, some really great, fun images, guys! Everyone did very well!!

I recognize quite a few :)

The recent SP craze has side effects.

Ancillary humorous-to-none anecdote:
I'm walking through the props-and-ancillary-junk store (wal-mart) when out of the corner of my eye I see lentil! "Holy crap!!" I'm turning around to say "WTH!!" when I catch myself and remember she's 1/2 a world away. 15 minutes later I saw Rikki.

I spend far too much time here.

I said that exact thing in one of my comments. It's like "heh, don't I know you from somewhere? I just can't place your name." LOL

What a joy to see all of these. One of my fav challenges to vote on so far.
05/19/2006 08:39:27 AM · #22
Aweeeeeeeee.... Are, you found me! Thanks for such a sweet comment!

I'm with you, Juti, these are so fun to see! :)

/me just sitting in the shadows reading replies and enjoying this "recognize each other" stuff :-)

Being recognized by a lot of voters might be a signal that it's time to try to branch out a little in the "style" of photos one enters, or use more variety in one's post processing methods. Of course the concept of anonymity is, by definition, suspended for a Self Portrait challenge, but if a photographer really wanted to challenge themself they could try to enter a self portrait that would score well yet not be identifiable.

I did just that. Out on a limb of sorts for me. Might be why not many people are recognizing it as my shot! :)
