Title - first question - What am I and what am I doing? I see a part of a thumb, but the rest is indistinguishable. I'll try to remember to read the description after the challenge, provided there is one. 3 Swash

This is the worst pic... You can't tell what it is, and the border is HORRIFIC! It's way too big and the color is opposed to the color of the "photo".

I had to vote this down as I was unable to come up with any clue as to what I was looking at. A large black blob on a rust coloured background. Some mystery lighter coloured trapezoid nearish to the centre. And a thick, unattractive lilac border that doesn't really add anything at all.

Maybe I'm missing the whole point and this is a very creative take on despair - a photograph from the school of Impressionism. Maybe I was supposed to despair at knowing what this was?

Way too blurry and a really tacky border.

I'm not sure what I'm lookin at in this image... I can't really give it anything but an average score without knowing what it is :( - setzler

I wondered if I'd ever see an image with with a lens cap or a thumb... You have both!!! All kidding aside, it is a unique interpetation. The border really drags it down for me though.

Purple doesn't generally tend to convey dispair. And I'm not sure what this is a photo of. I would like it alot more without the boarder though.

Not really sure what the image is of, but the pink border is very distracting.

Ohhhhh.. finally! Got it! The pink border doesn't help the photo, but at least I understand now.

Take a photo that no one understands? Don't see how this meets the challenge.

Fuzzy and mysterious. Sorry, I don't get it . . .

Interesting abstract, I suppose...I have no idea why you chose a bright pink border, it's mildly painful. Can't say this evokes the feeling of despair.

Not sure what I'm looking at to begin with, I'm afraid... and the pink border is a little harsh.

A little to abstract for me.

This photo is difficult to figure out as I can't seem to make anything out in it because it is so blurry. But then again if you did this purposely then I am not sure as to the reason why. Maybe you want to cause despair in the beholder :-) Then you get an extra point from me. The color of the border doesn't really fit to the photo.

sorry but I have no idea what this picture is of!

I don't really see the point in the big pink border. Interesting interpretaion otherwise.

02/24/2003 12:15:08 AM
