Judging by a comment, people aren't "getting" my photo. (What else is new?) Titles can really be a nuisance.

I think I've figured it out...

Roughly two-thirds of the pictures I've seen so far are shoes without people's feet in them.

Shoes exist to be on people's feet. Without some connection to a body, they seem like out of place props, thrown into some landscape to make a connection with the challenge.

The photos I'm rating high either tend to 1)Have feet, legs, people, or something in them to give the shoes a sense of purpose; or 2) Tell a STRONG story by themselves, so strong, that the shoes survive being disconnected from their people's feet.

I'm glad I scrapped my original idea of a pair of muddy work boots outside the doorstep, and instead went with something more human.


Are you just trying to rally support for your interpretation to get a higher score?

I wish mine would start shouting a bit - preferably " I DESERVE A 10!"

Well not sure if others feel this was, but I just did a quick once over of all the entries and this is the first challege that I can honestly say that the Top 10 seem REALLY obvious to me. In fact I would even venture to say that the top 5 are easy to pick of this huge group and I'm even pretty sure that I can pick the blue.

So far all you that fall into one of these categories.. Congrats. Now lets just see if my predictions hold true!

FINALLY,--- someone not only commented , they actually understood what I was going for. Mine,actually has a story in it,if anyone will take the time to actually look at the elements in it. It wasn't just a snapshot, but the thing is, due to my screen showing me one thing and other people's showing them a lighter or darker version, the beauty of it may have gotten lost. I found if it's looking too dark, as I suspect it might, no one will notice the little extra inuendo ( spelled wrong probably) and if their monitor is showing it too light, it loses the mysterious appeal. So, I beggggg you all to go back and look alittle harder at everyone's entry, you may be missing something.

By the way, I am sure votes and comments will move up a little when I get through because due to my system for voting, I tendto give marks on the high side and I try to comment on lots of them. I am finishing D&L voting now.

I am going to turn my monitor off before I vote on the challenge so as to not see the entries incorrectly. ;-p

gosh Mocabela that's pretty rough sorry haven't figured out how to quote!! No comments is pretty gutting. To me comments are more important than the score. This is my first challenge and I ahve one comment and it's pretty harsh but probably true.
08/31/2005 06:13:43 PM · #174
