Honestly, the concept does not grab me. My first instinct was to say HUH? LOL I also don't care for the frame. I do like the slightly antiqued tone to the photo.
I thought the idea was fairly interesting. It is a good study on textures and shapes.I think the exposure is good, maybe just a bit brighter. However, for me at least I find the scene a bit odd...why is there a cactus on the washer? It creates a very unreal photo, BUT I really like the geometrics quite a bit!
Ok this was fairly surreal, which can do well (but generally doesn't) in the challenges. From my point of view although it made me do a slight double take when it came up on screen during marking overall it seemed a little washed out (pardon the pun) and the light was a little harsh. Very nice sharpness. I am not sure whether the uneven border did it any favours
Mad. (But mad can be good!) A bit of idiosyncratic PP would have led us into a different world and brought out the quirkiness - instead I think most were a bit confused!
A 4 from me... while it is very original, the execution is blah. It really makes the viewer go "eh?" which as has been previously stated is not what people want in a FS... they want eye candy.
Well, you scored better than I did. I like it - it's funky and weird as many of your shots, but in FS it was bound to bomb. Nothing wrong with the image, but it does lack some wow. And FS is all about wow.
I quite liked the oddness of this. Probably not "wow!" enough for a free study, but it was a nice shot to pop up during voting. One sometimes tires of perfectly rendered landscapes and this was a delightful change!
Well, your image made me laugh. Definitely unique. I'm not crazy about the overly thick border on either side. For me, I would like to see a bit more color saturation, it seems a little flat.
That happened to me once..lol. A more centered frame would balance this better, and would make it so that the cactus wasn't covering up the text about "Before you call for service".
Finding something interesting ey? Well, interesting, but not too interesting photo wise. Good humor... i don't know, I am sure you could do much better, whoever you are :P
