Just found this in sfalice's faves. It just goes to the heart (of the matter?), laugh and cry. If I weren't so lazy I would select 5 or more of the comments and ditto them, but "insanely funny" almost sums it up.
Ok, I'm crying at this. Poor little thing - I know it's not human emotion, but it sure runs a close second to despair! AWWWWWWW This is the most emotive shot I've seen all month. Bless his little baaaaahd self. :~D
As many times as I have seen this, I can't believe I never put this one in my favorites.
Not sure which is better - the title or the shot itself, but the two were made for each other!!
What a riot!
This is a GREAT shot. I am very strict about meeting the challenge, but I think you did. You used humor to slam the challenge. You pay your money to participate in challenges and they don't realise, "I Don't Have a Garage"!! Sometimes when I'm having a bad day at work, I just think of this shot and I'm giggling! Thanks, and great work!! :)
This is probably my highest rated "doesn't fit the challenge"/"stretch to fit the challenge"/whatever-you-want-to-call-it picture ever. I'm usually at least a little sticky about fitting the challenge and not relying too much on the title to fit a shot in, but I gave this one an 8 - not often do I literally laugh out loud when I'm looking at challenge entries - when I saw this I did. And even without knowing the etymological roots of the word "garage". :)
I thought I commented on this shot. I love it. I didn't vote on it but had to let you know how much I liked it. He has the best expression on his face and you got to love those curls.
Piece of advice...Don't be afraid to sit out for a challenge. Better to sit out then to be scored low for a good pic just cause it has absolutely nothing to do with the topic we're suposed to be shooting for.
You beat about 50 people who DID take garage photos, so I think maybe it's worth submitting once in awhile just for the hell of it.
Good shot, very very classic and funny. Fav-ing it now.
Interesting statistic: your 109th place shot got more 9's and 10's than my 19th place shot. It's a pity that most voters could not accept that this *is* a take on the theme, albeit an off-beat (and very funny) one.
A very literal DPC community is a very dull DPC community.
Ellamay, I am delighted to see all the positive comments on your wonderful entry. Keep up the good, and original, work. Your beautiful beastie is now one of my "Favorites."
Poor guy looks soooo sad...but with that hair doo I guess I really can't say I blame him! :-)
Nice shot, love the expression captured on his face.... 7
great shot, but I've never seen one of these in a garage. It would have done well in a challenge that it meets, but I can't vote a shot this far out of the challenge well.
Very humorous outtake on this challenge. It's good that you didn't give up not having garage... The picture is very sharp and clean. It's as if the sheep is crying over not having her own garage. Well shot humour. 10
I LOVE IT! I am not sure this picture really goes along with the theme but I think this is a great shot. Sometimes I feel just the way this little guy looks.
Probably the funniest shot in the challenge!! :) I love it and though I don't really consider it "Garage Art", I sympathize with your situation and love the way you express it. This is such a great subject and you captured him/her so well, I absolutely love the expression! Well done!
Wonderful shot. The sight of this makes me feel uneasy, like it's a human that has turned into a sheep. Not really on topic though. In an animal shot this would be a 10.
This is wonderful and got a belly laugh (hard thing to accomplish before the coffee) and it has nothing to do with the challenge but it's getting a 7 from me for technical merit and I wish I could go higher
Incredible! Very well done job. This was stunning. Unfortunately I can´t vote it high because this challenge requires some identity of the stuff, used to produce the artwork, with garages. Certainly a sheep is not a commom thing to put in garage. Then this don´t meet the challenge. This break my heart, but I need to do it.
It's a good photo, but unfortunately has nothing to do with the challenge. Piece of advice...Don't be afraid to sit out for a challenge. Better to sit out then to be scored low for a good pic just cause it has absolutely nothing to do with the topic we're suposed to be shooting for.
As for the photo...it's nice. Great focus and lighting. I like that the fence is behind him a nd not in front of him. The expression is priceless...but honestly, for this challenge, I have to score it low. Sorry.
welllll.............. garage..................... i got a BAD rating on my last challenge for not following the directions close enough..... but... well.... i laughed outloud... this was a great funny image. perhaps you could crop a little of the right. saturation, color, and contrast look good.... funny funny.... i'll give you a 9 ..
