Too Late! Fiona Was Victim to the Crocodile's Greed

Challenge: 7 Deadly Sins (Classic Editing)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix 2600Z
Location: Birmingham, UK
Date: Oct 7, 2002
Aperture: AE
ISO: 1/140
Date Uploaded: Oct 12, 2002

My first submission to the competition. Had a camera for a couple of months now. I wish I'd entered this in the 'Reflections' comp but I've only just taken the snap this week. Had to find an angle for the 'Seven Sins' theme, struggled a bit, and hope this doesn't seem contrived or too much of a tenuous link. Somewhat inspired by the 'Far Side' cartoons of Gary Larson.

Interesting image, and good quality.. I will kick up your score a bit because of the technical quality. However, it is unclear what the message is without the title.. I'm sorry. I'm one of those that believes a title is like the side dish so to speak. :)

i don't see the crocodile .. he he .. but nice pic

I'm trying not to comment on titles, but this feels like a strech to say the least! Technicaly, it feels a bit oversharpened, there's halos around all the twigs.

Needs sharper reflections to go with sharpness of float. Otherwise good

You must have been very late, the water's a little bit too still!! Nice imagination.

poor fiona...poor photo (don't do much without the tiltle does it)
10/16/2002 11:16:00 PM
..and that explains the calm water surface.
10/16/2002 04:49:00 PM
Clever idea
10/16/2002 04:11:00 PM
stretch
10/16/2002 02:03:00 PM
Fiona?

Without the title, I'm clueless as to relevance... But with the title, I had a good laugh :) Well shot... ~MyQyl~

funny...or true story, shouldnt tried splashing a bit of fake blood on the tube..SCORE-
10/15/2002 02:02:00 PM
dumb

nice reflections on the water... the concept doesn't do much for me, but I will admit it is creative and unique. The shot is decent, but just doesn't appeal to me. 5 wingy
10/14/2002 09:28:00 PM
love the picture, one of the best, but doesn't depict sin to me.
10/14/2002 09:15:00 PM
Nice picture! But I don't get the title.
10/14/2002 06:49:00 PM
Funny title! Nicely framed photo. I wonder if it really qualifies for the theme... but since it is a large theme, I'll give yuo a 7/10 for the overall quality of the shot.
10/14/2002 03:58:00 PM
Poor subject relevance. Crocodiles are not greedy. They need to protect and feed themselves. Or they're just vicious. But I don't know about greedy crocodiles...

I really like how this is composed and the colors are good. The humor is nice, but without the title, it would be hard to see where you were going with this. karmat

You get an above average rating because of your fine/warped sense of humor. JEM

not really what I call in the realms of the challenge.. a little bit tenuous for my liking.
10/14/2002 05:03:00 AM
Crocodile can be like that. LOL Fun shot. Good luck.
10/14/2002 03:22:00 AM
An extra point for making me smile...
10/14/2002 03:07:00 AM
Technically well done, though Its stretches the challenge a bit.
