Agreed. This belongs in Lenswork, whether the number is obvious or not doesn't matter, it's the composition and its sepia-toned beauty that cries out for better recognition.
John thanks for your post that lead me to this shot.
I didnt view all the images for this challenge and I definitely missed this one!
It's a great shot and a cracking black and white.
JJ were the items actually arranged in the 007 format already or did you move them there as props?
Phew -- NOW I get it! I honestly looked at this over and over again in an attempt to get it... now I feel like an idiot. I still rated it highly, and think it was indeed an underrated shot this time around. I could see this hanging in a Cracker Barrel restaurant :)
too funny!!! this is a great shot!!! took me a sec to see the number and when i did, i couldn't stop laughing. deserved a much higher vote, in my opinion. this is one of my favorites.
You have been so unfairly judged in this challenge. I hope you dont let this discourage you from submitting in the future. This is a great shot with a great title. STILL a 10 from me.
This photograph is so grossly underrated -- I'm very disappointed. To all those who didn't take the time to 'get this', you should definitely take another look. Again, wonderful submission -- definitely on my list of favorites for the site.
Really nice find. Curious to know if this was set up or if it's always like this. I really like the sepia tones here. Focus and clarity are great. I like the angle as well. I think it's a good shot with the man in it, but I would also like to see it cropped tighter around just the 007. LIghting conditions are very good. no hot spots or distracting shadows. good luck in the challenge.
Does he have a license to pill? I am guessing this is JJ's. I'm probably wrong about the photographer but I love this composition. It is the best shoot of the week.... Definitely a 10. Bob
This is a great shot.. The use of B&W hides the numbers and the adition of "RayMond" gives the shot the needed human presence. I laughed (and groaned) when I saw this - not many pictures tickle me like this. Congratulations!
In my opinion, this does not meet the challenge, which required that the subject be naturally occurring (not manufactured in any way), which is a shame, because this is a truly outstanding photograph.
007 - Bond, James Bond, This one took some thought. It's great. Nice color. I'm glad to see the main subjects are not dead center on this one, it brings a great deal of balance to the shot. - Nice Work.
phenomenal... 007 :) This is very well exposed and the mood here is excellent... this is my 'best of show' for this challenge... GREAT work! = 10 - setzler
HILARIOUS. It took me a second to get everything, but well, well done. Perfectly executed photograph, and a marvelous job with the challenge. This is my early pick for a winner. Well done again!
