Lol, even with this laundry list of no-no's you've still managed to come up with an interesting shot :-)
Michael Shpuntov13-Oct-2006 03:10
Yep all those were broken, Result? Interesting image. Who invented those rules?
Guest 13-Oct-2006 01:48
heheh.... :)
Dave Wixx13-Oct-2006 01:30
Nope - I think you managed to screw that up perfectly!!
Bill Warren13-Oct-2006 00:09
You've done quite a bit more with this centered flower shot.
Guest 13-Oct-2006 00:09
You rule(s) breaker,you!
Well done!
Sheila12-Oct-2006 23:57

Guest 12-Oct-2006 22:04

Nice one Bev
Guest 12-Oct-2006 21:45
Nice entry.
John Beck12-Oct-2006 20:57
Very thoughtful on your part. It takes a lot of effort to break that many rules. Still kind of pretty.
Johnny JAG12-Oct-2006 20:56
I think you just about covered it.
Guest 12-Oct-2006 20:33
There's one more mistake you made Bev - you left your name on it!! No changing it to mine now!
laine8212-Oct-2006 20:27
Think you covered the lot !! Good work !!
Jannik Lindquist12-Oct-2006 20:13
Very careful and thorough rule-breaking - I almost get dizzy from watching this :-)
Bill Ewart Jr12-Oct-2006 19:31
Did you delete it yet?
James Ross12-Oct-2006 19:12
"You may as well be hung for sheep than a lamb" Good one. :-)

Ric Yates12-Oct-2006 18:53

Jessica McCollum12-Oct-2006 18:38
WOW, you really jumped on this challenge! Great one!
Jola Dziubinska12-Oct-2006 17:56
Nothing to add ;)
JSWaters12-Oct-2006 17:04
I think you hit them all. (Maybe the exception - no skewed horizon line - you might want to work on that!) ;^)

Guest 12-Oct-2006 16:55
Nice fun image.
Lee Rudd12-Oct-2006 16:53
wonky angles and chopped off top of background thingies! perfect!
Nicki Thurgar12-Oct-2006 16:45
LOL! Nope you haven't missed anything, very badly done, Bev! :o) (But somehow I still like it!!)
Dan Chusid12-Oct-2006 16:32
Looks like you forgot to crop it down the middle.
: )
JW12-Oct-2006 16:11
Mmm nice bollard! LOL

(I hear a major picture agency will check out everyone's most recent pic tonight then offer a major new contract based on quality of composition - best of luck , Bev! hehe)
wernere0112-Oct-2006 15:43
Nice interpretation and a fine shot.
Ray :)12-Oct-2006 15:28
