I love this image it is far from boring because it has lots to look at. Much to busy (in a good way) to show "BORED" I think photographers can be bored and take extremely interesting images that are Boring or show being bored. If you were bore that doesn't matter. Your images needs to show being bored.
Anyway...If this challenge was about machines. I would rate it higher than what I rated it for this challenge.
Beautiful detail! Lighting, decent bokeh, DOF makes a statement...
Your title demonstrates your attempt to leverage the challenge topic--just couldn't get geared up for this one, eh? :-)
(It will be interesting to discover your location in the photo notes. I see that a bolst has been applied to keep the machine from being operated. Historical park, perhaps?)
Although you have a great shot, I dont believe it fits the challenge. I mean, if it werent for the title, I would never associate this with boredom. Sorry...
Better luck next time and be more creative.
I love the title. And I'm a fan of concept shots, unfortunatley without the title this just dosen't fit the challenge. But I do love the shot, and I really did laugh out loud at the title.
