good shot. nice set up and execution.

thats just gross

The different skin tones kind of kill the effect, not to mention the ketchup-for-blood. If your interested let me know - I'll send you a shot of my similar real-life oops. Someone suggested it after the challenge was over. :-(

ewwwwwww. This is funny though :) clever set up.
 09/08/2003 02:21:35 PM
um, no
 09/08/2003 07:45:15 AM
Nice idea and good setup - I think the knife blade should look more metallic though. Also, why is there no 'blood' coming from the finger-stump?

Oh good god...the lengths people will go to win a ribbon these days! I hope that wasn't your shooting finger! Wow you are gonna get some comments though I bet! Definitely about as 'oops!!' as you can get. Already way too real looking, but maybe a little more realistic blood and some on the stub would have helped.

This is more of an eew rather than oops. The "stunt" finger looks too pressed against the board. Also, you forgot to add blood to the "stump" finger.
 09/07/2003 07:17:45 AM
Urgh!What a gross photograph!But it brings across the idea of "oops" much better than some of the others. It's also very cleverly set up (I'm assuming you didn't really chop off your finger) and it's a good compositionl

 09/05/2003 05:40:35 PM
The "nub" need to be bloodied too....

Why isn't there any ketchup on the stump of the finger?

Clever idea... good set up ... I had to look twice to figure out how you did this.
 09/04/2003 10:34:36 AM
I'll pass on the salad. :) Very nicely done.....creative shot.
 09/04/2003 03:45:11 AM
gross -- even though I can tell it's catsup and the fingers don't match -- still the thought, UGH!

The blood is suspiciously absent form the hand :)

Eww, nasty! But made me laugh. Good concept, must be sticking your finger through the board? Not too thrilled with the flash, but that's okay. Nice job.

remember that both sides of the finger would have blood, and actually the part on the hand would have more blood, because it would still be pumping.
