Just rifling through portfolios.

This is a pretty amusing photo. Those that criticized the image for not meeting the challenge take the word "everyday" a little too seriously, in my honest opinion. :p

Well You got it :)..."just tryin to keep my average low ;)"
You were one of my 8, usually artist photos get low rate (please comment mine //www.dpchallenge.com/image.php?IMAGE_ID=93054 ) I appreciate very much your opinion!
I am really depress, many other good pictures (for instance: //www.dpchallenge.com/image.php?IMAGE_ID=94106) got so few points: I am thinking to retire from DPC or be member and only participate in member challenges...I guess that is the only filter we can apply... usually members have a better knowledge of photos and voting

What do You think ?

LOL funny! Bravo on crossing the line! I like the concept but not so sure about the style. Looks like something I'd shoot too. You get a 9 from me.

Don't care for the processing - I thought filters weren't allowed. I think a more stark or natural or even black and white look would been better.

Might have been a very good shot without the effects you've added.

OMFG! This is hilarious! It took me about 20 seconds of studying it and re-reading the title to get it, but this is fabulous. A real work of art.

Yeah, well this just doesn't do it for me...perhaps because I am male?

The contrasty color effects are too overdone in my opinion.

Creative use of filters... This would never have worked as a traditional image. I'd never hang it on my walls, but kudos for creativity.

I think this is a great idea and nicely composed as well. The post processing, for me, pushes it a bit beyond 'photography'. I'm starting to learn to accept that more these days, but I'm still a believer in DPChallenge as a site for 'photography' and this image speaks to me more as digital art than as photography due to the processing. I originally scored this image rather low because of that. After thinking about it a little more, I have changed my score to a 10. This is the first 'digital art' that I have scored a 10 also.

Great work :)

This is an every day object? How about every 28 days. You missed the challenge

Maybe everyday for a week - once a month, but never single day. Colors are funky. Didn't know what you were holding to I saw the package. Interesting shot though.
