What can I say? Grate image? : )
Don't feel bad. I have one in a current challenge that may show up right next to this in the "lowest rated" images pages.
I see what you were shooting for here, but I think that I would have shot it from the other side, showing the potato, and with a little higher shutter speed. The voters don't seem to vote happy on images that don't have a strong subject that connects directly with the challenge description in their mind when they open the thumb. At least you got this out of the way now, and can get back to going after other ribbons.
I don't think this shot quite shows what it's meant to show. I would choose a different crop to show it better, and make more use of the dots pattern on the grater, and less blurry hand.
Had to look at this for a few moments to figure out what the view was and how it relates to the theme. I think it is the hand shredding that is the old way? May have worked better if the potatoes in the foreground did not have so much motion blur. Good out of the box thinking, though.
This is a nice picture but it is hard to tell that the blurred object is a potato and it does take up a very large portion of the photograph. I would have liked to see more of the grater.
I don't know what I'm looking at, only about 1/4th of this photo is actually visable. Your camera looks like it can handle up close pictures you just need a different scence setting to catch an action shot.
Errrr...good luck with this one! Are you troll baiting, or is this a genuine entry because I'm confused. Surely you know that the presumed subject 'hash browns' are totally out of focus and unrecognisable. Even if you knew that, this doesn't seem very Old Ways either. Or maybe this is your proudest shot ever and I'm missing the point. Yours in a totally-lost-but-trying-to-be-constructive way, Quasi ;)
