I have to take some of the blame for this bizarre entry. Rena and I went out taking photos of an abandoned building near downtown for this challenge. She had climbed up on the hill above the building, and I didn't even know she had photographed an abandoned pair of tighty-whiteys. When I was looking at the shots on her memory card, I saw this. I encouraged her to submit it because it was just so offbeat and strange, it was sure to get lots of fun comments (which it did), and establish some notoriety for her. It's too bad this didn't get the brown. It would have been appropriate.
BTW #1, I can't see that this is any more gross than this popular image, appropriately it was done by Mr_Pants who gave Rena her gift membership:
BTW #2, How does a photo of a lost pair of tighty-whitey's come in with a higher score than "Little Red Riding Shoehorn"?!
Yes, completely liberating! :D I like the tones, but could be sharper. Oh wait... maybe, given the subject matter, it shouldn't be sharp under any circumstances ;)
I don't know how I feel about these underwear shots in the woods - just a shot of dirty underwear doesn't really tell a story. Yes, it's clear that it was abandoned, but there are no clues as to why, and that makes me lose interest fast. Utilize your background in a pic like this, perhaps have a naked guy running away though the woods or about to jump in a lake? Just give us a little more of a story with it. Just staring at dirty underpants doesn't make for an appealing pic. Where are his pants? Shirt? etc.
