With all the cows and splashes all over, I didn't even see you sneaking into the top 10 !!
Still a bit underrated, comparing to some of the pics above, but at least you're in the first page!
Congrats!!

This should have been in the top 5. It has so much depth and story. It was one of my few 9's. You still placed well. Congrats, my friend!

Damn I should have known it was you Robert!
I swear I even thought of it while voting "this is RGO type of shot".
Always showing some drama, real contrast, not only on the use of colors, but contrasting aspects of our existance on this !@#%#¨$ planet!
You should be on National Geographic!!!!!

Mm...something ineffable about this photo. I gave it a ten because of it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/28/2005 05:43:59 PM
This image reminds me of how blessed I am. I really like your composition. Good Luck
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice concept. I like the contrasty feel. Perhaps a slightly higher perspective may have aided a little. Undecieded on the background - I think it works... I'll let you know if I ever make up my mind! 8

Unfortunate that the milk turned out so blown out bright. Despite that it is still my personal winner for this challenge. I like the composition, brights vs darks, the message it appears to try to convey, the distinction from the background etc etc.

beautiful display!

Very interesting... I like your style, but I like the feeling behind it even more. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

i like the contrast alot between the white milk and the dark hands. Also the dark hands against the background is great. Amazing photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This photo is nice and touched my heart
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/25/2005 08:29:56 PM
It makes feel all warm and fuzzy inside. (Yeah, I know, how descriptive am I?) The border really works. Nice colors. Looks like you tarred your hands or something...whatever. Love this photo. Very thoughtful.

Very simple, yet highly emotional. Good work. The soft focus background accentuates the hands. --10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/25/2005 06:06:58 PM
Outstanding! 10.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

this is a brilliant idea in this challenge. So many emotions and thoughts are brough up by those hands.
This could be such a wonderful motivating poster. It has something in it to everyone.

If there was anything I would consider to change in this shot, it was maybe having those hands from the top left and towards the viewer. not from the viewer and to elsewhere.
But I could be wrong. Hard to visualise it in 2d.

Anyway I love the familiar process and I think this is one of the top shots of this challenge. Worth the boredom of seeing 60 cows just to get my vote for it to count.

Beautiful shot. I like how the transition between brown in left corner to over saturated in the top right works.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/25/2005 12:41:44 PM
Great detail and texture, contrast is wonderful, the background is (thankfully) not just stark white and it adds interest without overpowering the image. It's just over-all really well done.

When people say a picture paints a thousand words, I think an excellent photograph evokes a thousand emotions. This is one of them. I like the stark effect of this image and the simplicity of the story it conjures up.

really like this 1

its photojurnalisitic and very artistic at the same time

I think the milk is overexposed. It lost its texture. It is kinda hurting my eyes. Then again, maybe my LCD monitor is too bright. I do like the idea, and the photo too.
so........

The white is blown out on my screen, but otherwise it is a very emotional, disturbing image. Good composition.

Very compelling subject matter. Great composition and focus. Sadly, what ruins it for me is the high contrast background. 9
