Here’s the Photo of the Day.
Like it or not? I’d love to know, and it would be good for everyone if you told me why.
[BTW, this image is from our “OGI” file. What’s that? Well…when Scott and I are editing photos after a shoot, combing through thousands to find the select few that see the light of day, we employ a practice that I can’t recommend highly enough. That practice is to put those surprise images–the unexpected happy accidents that have merit, but maybe aren’t relevant to the job we’re editing–into a file of their own with other like-minded (bizarre, unique, etc) images. We call that file “Otherwise Gifted Images”. That’s sort of what I meant by the title of this post. It’s got a double meaning… in one sense, like this image or not, the practice of saving random, unexpected stuff to a common file, or tagging it a certain way, is a good practice. In another sense, I do want to know if you like this photo or not. I’m bias, but I love it. In fact, I took a spin through that whole file last night and fell in love all over again with about 40 photos.. I’ll be sharing more of them over time.]




I don’t like it. It hurts my neck to look at it.
LOVE IT! Like others it took me a minute to figure it out–but I like that it just made me stare at it for a while.
LOVE IT! its one of those that make you go… huh?, oh, cool! the fact that it is vertical also adds to that surprise. it would have been less fun if it were horizontal.
I like the strong textures in this photo.
Kind of interesting. Took me a couple seconds to understand it. I like it because it reminds me of the hulk. The right side of the image is the human-self, but the left side (the under water) looks like the Hulk. Larger than life.
