Don, dear, you'll forever be one of my favorite commenters for your comment on my Cat on Glass shot, which remains one of my personal all time favorite photographs. And Ed can yap all he wants even if it isn't on anything of mine - it's still a good source of learning just to read what he leaves on other shots. So I begrudgingly (but with great fondness just the same) third the nomination.

categorical OOBIE?

Step one... put a hole in the box

Step two... put your OOBIE in the box

Step three... give DPC the box

Sorry, I got offline before rollover.

This shot absolutely made me laugh. It's "literal" but still out there to me, if it is possible to be both.

Good choice, sometimes it gets too serious around here and you need to udderly enjoy and laugh.

About a day and a half to go before this current crop of nominations moves on to the voting process...all OOBIE nominations posted between August 26-September 1 will go to the vote starting September 2.

As for the YAPPIE, post your nominations in this thread as usual, but now YAPPIE nominations will be collected over a month; voting and awards will occur once a month. This first "month" will be a little long, but that's ok. :) The next round of YAPPIE nominations began on August 19 and will continue through September, and go to the vote on October 1st.

OOBIEs will remain on a weekly schedule.

Post your candidates for an OOBIE or a YAPPIE here!

the way I read this shot, "filling the frame" referred to the leaves filling out the branches, a nice step out of the box for the challenge description

I nominate this shot for an OOBIE:

I think it's great, but most of the voters didn't seem to get it.

oh, nice interpretation! I just thought of this as "filling the frame" with the space between two objects. Since so much of both objects were outside of frame, it really did make the frame seem "full" to me.

I hope that makes sense...

Hopelessly underrated photo. I think people didn't realize that the child was running into the street. During the challenge, it didn't even strike me as OOBIE but the score suggests otherwise.

About a day to go before this current crop of nominations moves on to the voting process...all OOBIE nominations posted between September 2-8 will go to the vote starting September 9.

YAPPIE noms posted up to September 30 go to the vote on October 1st.

I want to nominate

magenmarie for a YAPPIE. She finds the quirky photos that don't score well and points out what's good about them. I consistently see her comments on the photos I love, seeing some of the same beauty that I see.

Yah, let's hear it for magenmarie. Definitely a great sense of quirk. Yap on.

I thought the sparkles on the frog and the sparkle-ly bokeh was a nice touch.

I think my OOB is askew but this photo is beautiful and should not have scored as low as it did

I thought this was good in the power challenge (though it wasn't low scoring):

I'd like to nominate the original suck-master (or maybe I should say OOBIE -master)

Posthumous for this shot. I loved it.

This is a very very OOBIE shot. Look at how post-processing is used to convey the challenge, Power. Brilliant in every sense.

I think an out-of-box does not ncessarily something that people do not seem to get. Out of box is something that people usually do not seem to think. (but get what photographer wanted to present).

for example, there is a portrait 'the muse' in my portfolio, in this eyes of the model are torn out. When you see a portrait, you would not imagine it without eyes. So presenting a portrait without eyes (or composing it such makes it out of box) and it is easy to understand.

Out of box thinking is something that does not come to mind easily and yet someone brings it out and shows you.
(my personal thinking).
