I didn't really think it was that hard to see or comprehend, I thought it was a really good entry. I gave it an 8. I hope you stick around for more challenges, will be nice to see what you can come up with. Welcome to DPC.

is the blueberry the predator or prey, there are no witnesses...
12/04/2007 03:29:25 PM
Too busy, but I still liked it.

creative and nice shot

in a photo titled "Blueberry Massacre" I would hope to see some color. With out the title this image is very hard to read
12/03/2007 05:30:13 PM
This picture is very interesting, it took me a minute or two to realize what it was of.
12/03/2007 03:44:18 PM
I fail to see what it is, other than unsharp blur
12/03/2007 12:31:40 PM
Really interesting patterns - I wonder whether colour may have helped lift this ?

If you are going to call this Blueberry, than I want to see color.

The blacks are too deep, the whites are barely in, your tonal values need help.

I do not see a blueberry, I see a black hole.

Interesting shapes and shades, but it's kind of a messy jumble that I can't understand.

intresting abstract feel this this and I think it's a creative angle for the challenge.

don't see a crowd.
11/30/2007 09:15:30 AM
to be honest looks more like a Blueberry mess or maybe a Blackberry mess :)

I'm not sure that B&W was the way to go with this concept.
11/29/2007 02:06:07 PM
VERY avante garde! I like it! 6

you can't really tell it's a blueberry
11/29/2007 01:59:16 AM
Hmmm....blueberries.... I think this may have been better in color with strong blues and a white background.
11/28/2007 11:25:50 PM
I like the grain in this image, but the blueberry is a bit too centered for my liking. What does it look like in colour? It lacks a bit of impact in greyscale.
11/28/2007 08:51:39 PM
Its a bit dark and doesn't really stand out. Perhaps a color version and an overall desaturation of a shade may do the trick.
11/28/2007 06:06:49 PM
funny
11/28/2007 03:39:43 PM
If it wasn't for the title I'd have very little idea what this was all about.
11/28/2007 12:20:20 PM
not sure about this. I think it may have needed color. Without a title I would not have known what I was looking at.
11/28/2007 11:51:31 AM
I'm curious, with all the wonderful shades of blue and pink that come from mashed blueberries, why this is in b&w. It does make a nice abstract. It might be more effective if the blueberry were off center (rule of thirds might be used effectively here).
11/28/2007 10:48:59 AM
It's the only surviving blueberry, could this little guy be the perpetrator? I love the "old violent comic book" feel.
11/28/2007 10:33:13 AM
There's quite a bit of noise in the photo and I think I would have preferred it in color.
11/28/2007 07:03:38 AM
An abstract composition. It took me quite a while to figure out what I'm looking at until I see the title. The lighting could be improved. Nice try.

Ahhh, the event that turned the tide of public opinion and marked the beginning of the end for the Berry Mafia. :)
