Challenge: De-Motivational Poster (Basic Editing*)
Camera: Canon EOS-30D
Lens: Tokina AF 12-24mm f/4.0 AT-X Pro DX
Date: May 7, 2009
Date Uploaded: May 7, 2009

 The last motivational poster challenge that came around was at a time that we were headed out for vacation and I had no chance to shoot for it. This one came around as I try to figure out how to balance out my desire to play on DPC and not let it overtake my thoughts. Skimming through the website that had the demotivational posters I came across this quote. I figure many people will probably use it - but I really liked it. Thursday morning I awoke to alot of fog. I finished up my Thursday morning mens group that meets at my house and got Aidan out into a farmers field in our neighborhood. Took maybe 10 shots because I had to get him to school. This was the best of the bunch. It works very well to me and I have high hopes that it might hit a 6.5. I wish the challenge was advanced not just for the extra editing tweaks I could have done but to have the extra size on the image.

Many times, that's me. For anyone, how many "real" friends do you actually have?

Nice shot, Tim. The quote is the corollary to "you're special ... just like everyone else." ;)

might have placed the kid a bit more off to the right, but only by a few feet. great choice in the background, the mist adds a whole extra element to the photo 7

this one made me laugh! I like the shot composition. I'm on a laptop and it looks a touch dark. still works though.

Nice pic, but I think if you'd put a new take on the line instead of using an existing one it would be better. But that's just me. Still, 7 for the great pic.
