I titled this pic in a way in which to let everyone know that I knew what I was doing. I over exposed the picture in the camera, when it was taken. I did nothing to touch it up in PhotoShop or any other program. Also the thing in the corner is my foot, and I felt it helped to add some sence of movement/perspective to the photo.

Also as far as the overall picture, the picture would be much more boring and normal if I turned it upright and it wasn't over exposed. This picture is more experimental and unusual, and like others of its kind it will never be as widely liked as the more normal photos, and I understand that.

Interesting shot. Not sure why you chose a horizontal layout.

I like the pose/picture, but the overexposure doesn't add to the picture.

Interesting and creative. What's he so angry about?

Is the title a statement of intent, or an excuse? Doesn't really work either way. Sorry.

Why so over exposed? Nice perspective.

it's interesting -- and I like the way you've left the image a horizontal instead of a vert -- I think I would have tried to find somewhere where the railing in the background could have been avoided -- focus completely on you -- but that's a personal taste

Like the angle and the framing. Know the title calls for it to be overexposed, but would've preferred this less overexposed anyway. Just my opinion.

  Photographer found comment helpful.

well done on breaking the rules and coming up with something that is still interesting

You're right, it's overexposed. I think it would have been more striking if you'd turned the contrast up more though.

Over exposed with a lot of haziness. Maybe play with the white balance to not haze it up as much?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/29/2002 03:50:00 PM
yes it is, but very crisp.

Over-expose photos may not be suitable for this case !!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/29/2002 02:34:00 PM
Gimme some action. The photos a bit boring just standing around. oh yeah... and the overexposure doesn't really work here.

You're photogenic, and intense, and you look like you're 20 feet tall! Auggh!

I am waiting to see how many people tell you it is overexposed! First impression, I didn't like it but it kinda has a Hollywood feel to the look ... good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is a pretty nice shot, but it doesn't really leave a lasting impression. I think it could have done without the object in the lower left corner

 04/29/2002 10:45:00 AM
shouldn't this be vertical?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

What's up...fool!

 04/29/2002 09:06:00 AM
people will say they don't like this because it's overexposed, but who cares, this picture is really awesome
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/29/2002 08:39:00 AM
Yup, very over-exposed...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/29/2002 08:35:00 AM
Yes, overexposed.

growl ;)

I like the angle, and the photo definately meets the challenge. I think that if it had not been over exposed I would have liked it more.

This is an interesting submission... I agree with the title.
