edit,
This is one where I still struggle with raising my vote. Did you go snorkeling? Maybe. How can I tell though? What this looks like to me is a man snorkeling in his studio. the white background makes this shot look staged and therefore I can't say you went snorkeling. It looks like you pur your gear on, and took a studio photo.
Overall this is very creative. I am curious about the fish in the mask and how it was done. the highkey works with the image, it just doesn't convey your weekend to me. If I didn't feel this was a DNMC I would hve voted it an 8 easily. I like it.
However, I am still having a problem coming to grips with how it meets the challenge. If I loosely say well the title doesn't matter he went snorkeling, then it fits. But I think in this challenge and for this image the title matters. I am raising my original DNMC=1 to 5. I would have gone higher if I didn't think the title lets this image down, if only in the context of this challenge. Had this been a free study the title would have fit perfectly. But not in this challenge, in my opinion. And I have to vote based on my opinion. |
Well put and probably a feeling that most of us have. It just goes to prove that a great photo, no matter what the challenge, will almost certainly beat out a creative, but of lesser quality photo that totally meets the challenge and/or description of the challenge. It's a puzzling fact to me and I'm glad you said it. |
