Nick, quite often I have to come down here to find you, but this down? They are sooooo crazy... And boring...
To those that think (for a want of a better word) that the camera should have been directed upwards, just look at the shadow which is taking the picture; it's the shadow photographing the face of the lady. So, what Nick is telling is that a shadow is taking a "from the ground up" photo, but you can't have that photo, just this one. That one you have to imagine. That's how I see this nice funny photo. To me this photo is a play, that immediately swept my anger at people who vote, then made me smile, then made me think. Now I'm laughing again.
Now this is for making a shadow the superstar for making the lady in one of her, I'd say, private moments, a superstar.
Congratulations, [user]boysetsfire[/user], for such a refreshing take on the challenge!
I am happy to see this get an award, I ran across this one last week and left a comment because to me it was a brilliant shot that was missed by the voters. Congrats!
I just wanna say congrats on getting the brown with a photo that is neither technically awful nor completely DNMC. That's an accomplishment in itself :-)
Far out! Good that you were recognized for this wildly intelligent image. I think you getting the brown for your entry was a low point for the DPC votership.
