 Thanks forbeing a great model Ma !
I have been brainstorming for this challenge ever since it was announced

My brother and I Built this dock at our cottage along with a few other renos

This kind of all just fell together. It was great fun. There were about 15 people on shore cheering us on.

I do not recall ever seeing this at DPC ... so there you go

It never stops to amaze me what in the name of DPC we make our family members do for us to get the shot :-))) This is a great fun photo. It just cracks me up.

Oooh I thought this would have been a ribbon winner. I don't remember seeing many toilets on a dock - especially ones being used with the seat down hehe. Your mom is a fun one. Great shot and congrats on the top 10!

Great idea ;-)

Comment only.

A nice fun image that of course meets the challenge well. I like the fact you desaturated all but the toilet and poo'er but not sure about the land in the background, shadow highlight tool? also, is there some cloning in the trees right of the paper? Lets hope he isn't actually doing 'something' as the toilet seat is down ;)

Ouch. :) I hope you paid your model well. :) (not voting)

This is hilarious! I really like the use of the partial desat to really pin the focus on the dude... in his office....
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/27/2009 12:11:50 PM

  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2009 01:35:41 PM
Ha ha! I love the humor in this - I don't think this has ever been seen on DPC! Your neighbors must have been wondering what the hell you were doing! LOL! But it does look like the lid is down - that will make for a messy cleanup! I can't stop laughing!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2009 12:55:08 PM
the desaturation works surprisingly well here, but I do wonder what the scenery looked like because the light on the lady is very golden and warm. Oh well, it works to isolate her though
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2009 12:15:07 PM
I'm not diggin' the selective desat so much, but it's a great shot and damn funny.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2009 07:52:57 AM
