well, at least i figured out how to do what i was trying to do:
===========================
tic-tac candies on a piece of plexiglass with a sheet of red construction paper below.
the question is, does the sharp individual really want to join a duplicitous, shallow, closed group?
and believe me, i know about the dust on the sensor. unfortunately, i waited until the last minute to shoot this and really blew it. couldn't spot edit, and didn't have time to clean and reshoot. arrrgghh!!!

Thanks for the moral support Skip. I like your concept on this image. At least there was some meaning to it, as opposed to mine. I could see something like this in the Personification challenge.
yep, i blew this one by not knowing what i was doing and not allowing enough time to figure it out. top it off with too much dust on the sensor, and well, the score i got is the one i deserved!
The first thing I notice about this shot is that the largest section of the photo is out of focus. The thing that my eyes are really drawn to is soft, while the little guy in the corner is in focus more. Also there are some black dots near the center of the photo and one in the bottom right of the photo that I find a tad distracting. The reflections of the candies make it appear to have more than just 7 of the subject, however, reflections don't count in my opinion. ~Heather~
This is a weird shot. The reflections make this one overall confusing. Are these tic-tac's? I think the focus should have been on the 'clique', rather than the loner in the foreground.
I like this shot - it makes me think of scifi. Are those tictacs? I like the choice of focus here, too bad its a basic challenge, those spots (dirt, sensor dust?) would have been nice to clone out.
