hey shanny .. came to see wot you'd been doing lately and noticed this excellent shanny photograph ... just fantastic ... i just love the way they seem to walking/running into the light .. for me this image brings to mind ppl who have died (and i dont necessarily mean physically) and are being re-born ..
after writing all that i looked to see wot you actually scored .. OMG 4.8 that is totally insane .. so now i just read the other comments .. how right they are .. a whole heap of amazing photographs that are really like works of art, and have so much going for them, go right over the heads of the masses in dpc .. this is a perfect example ..
anyway .. hope life is sweet for you shanny & sending hugs ... :):)xx

To vote down on this kind of shot because you think it is blown out (without intention) would be rediculous. It is a perfect shot that goes against the usual advertisment style images that score well on DPC.

Disappointing to see you score low with this Shannon, it deserves more, but I fear that this kind of style will never be appreciated on DPC as it does not fit the mould of advertising look images that often win or at least score well here.


she has won a ribbon, she knows what it takes to score well here. but you're right, many 'outside the box' masterpieces go unnoticed during voting. thank god for the posthumous ribbon thread.

for the record, i gave this a 6.


haha. thanks guys for the comments. and ya... the ribbon i won just so happens to be one of my least favorite entries, evvvver!! :) go figure~

Not much here to hold the viewer's interest. It also seems over exposed.

nice composition, i like how one of the people has a foot off the ground, it gives it more lift and motion

Lots of blown out sky there - doesn't really contribute anything to the image

Oh I miss the lake and my boat. Just one more year in Korea nd I can have it back. the blown out sky here really lets this down. Otherwise I like it.
