Kind of a bit cluttered, but that's the point, isn't it? Nice processing.

This is a great photo! I always enjoy people photography. Even though this is really busy, it lends to the story of this gentleman. I love the cane peeking out by his feet!

A humorous subject matter, but it's just so cluttered.

The photo is fine, but the challenge here was to photo something with the main subject in the centre. In the centre of this photo there is just a yellow pot of something. In fact not even that, it's more a piece of newspaper.

This made me laugh. I like the processing hue/sat or HDR but too much side distraction to be a centered composition in the true sence. I gave you a 6 and would have been higher due to a good image if not for a "CENTERED COMP" challenge.
01/03/2007 07:19:12 AM
while it's a great image, with superb editing...is it true to the challenge? not sure it is, but I like it
