This does not work for me in anyway for zen, in fact quite the opposite in fact, sorry about that. |

It may require zen on the part of the shooter, but the photograph is not zen-like or soothing to me. On the plus side, good focus on the eye of the shooter. The wall and plants behind are a bit distracting. |

you're having a laugh obviously; no one seriously thinks blasting cute furry animals with a big massive gun comes close to even a wild approximation of the concept of zen. harmony? technically i feel the picture is a little claustrophobic, and the lighting feels harsh... 3. |

A lot of people won't get this idea, cus they've never lived it and can't understand it. It's a good idea, but I would have been a little more careful with my background and the clothing on the model. Kinda looks like a city setting with that wall behind the model. A sniper, maybe? |

I think that killing goes against the Zen thing don't you think? I would be embarrassed. |

Sorry, but a hunter (even a still one), doesn't fit into the concept of Zen for me. |

When I think of zen I think of peace and simplicity. This photo does not have either one IMO, and only fits the challenge because of the title. |

Zen, IMO, included the esence of chivalry. Hunting with that tecyhnology is not chivalrous. No vote from me. |

I don't believe that any practitioners of Zen Buddhism would find anything zen-like about taking the life of another sentient being. |

I get the stillness of the hunter but hunting itself, to me, doesnt say Zen (MHO) |
