I concur that 5.2 is way too low for a shot like this. The pun is clever and the perspective unique. Looking at the shot again, it reminds of the The Son of Man painting. The guy with the apple in front of his face.

Wow, 38 votes of 3 or lower? That is extraordinarily obtuse of the voters, I agree. As you put it, this wasn't a ribbon winner, but...

I don't see why it shouldn't have finished in the very high 5's, I don't see why so many thought it was so poor...

I didn't vote the challenge, but I'd have given it probably a 7.

Will never understand the voters. if I did I suppose I would score 7-8's all the time. Although I gave this a 6 at the time I would give it a 7 now. Its something that grows on you and I suppose it did not have that immediate impact wow factor when I saw it the first time. Just viewing the shot even at first site anybody should be able to see that this is def not a 5...yet this is DPC
