I'm sorry. Is that from looking at my pictures?

gdiaz, I have a more joyful attitude towards it, the guy above is actually happy he can share his gift with other people. Especially with Theresa.

nice processing, but his head shouldn't be blown out (ouch!), shouldn't be cut off (ouch too) as his right shoulder shouldn't be cut off as well.
i like it (and i would save it) but it has too many flaws and - unlike Marylin's one - they don't add a good feeling.

deleteme5 (I put 4, b4)

(you knew somebody would do that joke, right?)

there are too much parts touching the border, which doesn't help at all...

alphadesigner says:

Scampo, you mean Marilyn, right? Well, I know it looks like it's cut off, but it actually isn't. See my tags - do you see "image manipulation"? :) It is pure photography, but this time it looks like it isn't, right? :) Can't blame you, I would have said the same.

Yep, РАИ, I was expecting it.

Buh, I thought you had this in mind:

Now did you love her (physically) or not? :)

she looks finer then she is feeling (i'm sure it is... was a question of famousness)

i love the dynamism, unusual motion grain. Reinforce the angry feeling. I think Sandman as well

Very powerful. I love the contrast, tones, and composition - the suggestions above would just weaken it. Strong stuff. Sadly it's unlikely to get 10 saves from this crowd: but nevermind, your pretty fossils were a hit!

alphadesigner says:

LOL hedgie, the fossils were too sugary to be ignored. This is more rough. It's more me without the make up.

Fred: Thanks!

The movement here- not just of the figure but of every little bit of texture, is really compelling.

just a touch out of focus.

Eiraq says:

Nice, but I think it's a bit too tightly cropped top and left, also would have been good if something had been in focus, even just a small detail. Aaaaand, find the head too blown out. The whites that is, not in a violent way.

Like Hourman, I feel the image is compelling. It compels me to delete it.

It seems due to the curve of the earth, I am often asleep when you post pics. Shame as I would have saved this. Very nice.

Definately a fave.
Posted 38 months ago. ( permalink )

alphadesigner says:

You seem to be awake for the ones you want to delete. :) Anyway, thank you. I'm thrilled!

This image has 10 legitimate deleteme votes, so I am removing it from the pool, because Jim is obviously too lazy. Summary time:

1. Six saves and four faves. That's pretty awesome for a salty ikea-phobic jump-n-prance black and white photo.
2. Marilyn Manson's spiritual input decoded (typo ignored). Unexpected.
3. Eowyn couldn't delete it. Again!
4. Two admins almost in conversation with each other.
5. Not in Explore.

I call that huge success, don't you agree?

Subculture of One says:

What tha ****??? You delated an amazing photo man, and you know it. Get away from them (self contained in their small crops)!

Though, I do addmit it's fun. Especially your comments!
Posted 38 months ago. ( permalink )

alphadesigner says:

I don't think they know it's an amazing photo. :);) All they know is that if they discuss the "crop" that would make them look more "intellectual". Some of them can't recognize a real photograph from what they call "graphic design" and they take the whole voting stuff too seriously. They even saved one of my kitschy pics, just because it looked flashy. ;)

But I'm not bitter. This went 10:6 and I predicted 10:0. :))

alphadesigner says:

I'm sorry, you misunderstood - I am not offering you the regular junk food. Here in the Balkans we still have those natural foods that you call "bio" as if they grow only in laboratories. My grandmother is the greatest bio specialist, she runs an enterprise called Helena Incorporated and produces an enormous amount of tomatoes and peppers every year. And they don't smell like ham. :) People don't get fat from home cooked meal, so you shouldn't deny the pleasures of the flesh that easily. :)

Yield to it!
