DPChallenge: A Digital Photography Contest
 
Challenge Details
Despair II (ARCHIVAL)
An Open Challenge using the Standard Editing rules.

Description
Consider the underlying thought that a photograph is about communication and that the best photographs should have something to say other than 'wooh, pretty'. In the spirit of this thought, capture your best communication of despair.

Extra Rules
This is an ARCHIVAL challenge: you may enter any digital image shot by yourself for which you retain a valid original and which has not previously been used in a DPC submission.
