I'm glad to know I'm not the only one this happens too...

Cute. But I think he should be moving, too (trying to avoid the pan), and he should have a grimace on his face instead of a blank expression. Still a cute shot.

A great idea, and the shot is technically well executed. Lighting, focus, motion blur all come together well. I might have been inclined to broaden the framing a little, but that's just my taste.

But there's a lack of emotion in the subjects that makes the whole thing seem a bit contrived, unfortunately. It doesn't look like they mean it.

Well set up (or notset up??) Definitely catches the spirit. Nice job.

Nice, nothing like some domestic violence caught by a camera.

My only objection to it is that the photographer's famous face is easy to recognise and may infleunce the voters. Actually, my second objection is that I'd like to see some reaction to the impact on the model's face - sich a flight (and aren't we having a bit of product placement here in form of famous red-spot by Tefal? :) should really scare. Or was he dead drunk?

That's what you get if you don't hang a new roll of toiletpaper on the toilet and your wife goes to the toilet after you...

Man - you are too funny!!! I am really hoping that she is pulling away rather than going forward. I am not sure how many of those you could have taken had you not gotten the shutter timing right. Kudos on another great SP.

Hah! He doesn't even see it coming!
Nice take on this challenge!

Even though the lighting isn't perfect and there is a bit of distractions (like the electric appliance in the back)...This is by far my favorite. It meets the challenge perfectly, and it's damn funny. The picture cracked me up, and when I read the title, I was literally crying!
It looks as if the model got hit for real and he isn't even flinching. He would have been flat on his back after this shot.

funny! did he eventually duck?

Oh my...that would hurt....a 10 for your troubles.

This one is very clever and funny! The motion is the content of the photo, as well as part of the aesthetic form.

You look innocent - if you are the male. Not a beer can in sight either. If you're the lady, then I suppose it was his stoic nature that finally enraged you. Hopefully, this photo is not going to be subpoenaed.

Yikes! How in the world did she stop swinging in time? At leas I HOPE she stopped swinging! ;^)What's the red streak/spot in the middle of the pan, a label?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2006 10:22:13 AM

Motion Blur at its best ..
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2006 08:35:27 AM
ROFL Not an overly artistic shot, but VERY funny nonetheless. I think you should have called it MEATHEAD (an American reference to the son in "All in the Family." Thanks for the morning laugh.

Funny funny funny!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/26/2006 07:08:53 AM
guy on the left is too stationary - as the pan is pulled away to create that swinging effect it would have been good for the guy to move his head to the left giving the total overall appearance that he got smacked with the pan !!! Great idea and I hope it does well - GL
