It's not a mistake, it's an accident.
flipthom said 2195 days ago:
Yes! No more soothing water and nature shots! This is awesome! It has a very airbagish zen feel to it. High marks for originality and humor!
phototext said 2195 days ago:
How this relates to the theme is way over my head.
As a photograph it doesn't do much for me either.
KAD_Imaging said 2195 days ago:
Err...Zen???
zulu said 2194 days ago:
LOL.. I want read the other comments. And I hope I found out, where you see the relevance in this picture.
pete said 2194 days ago:
i dont understand how this is zen?
CraigMartin said 2194 days ago:
zen equals death?
slak said 2194 days ago:
Not sure this picture fits the theme but after all, why not :)
CraigMartin said 2194 days ago:
Ana, I am really interested to hear more about what you were trying to convey with this shot in this theme.
Flatline said 2194 days ago:
Needs more contrast, and could benefit from greater saturation. Adjusting curves would probably solve that.
Regarding content, I find this very far removed from zen. The car might be "at rest" but this is not zen-like - either as it relates to the given Topic description, or my personal understanding of Zen. Maybe you misunderstood the theme, I hope it's not just a total disregard for it.
pursang said 2194 days ago:
I've really been trying to understand this one. I've been back to it several times before rating it and still don't get it.
Ana said 2194 days ago:
Okay, so this is a fun posting that was not relevant at all but it kindles my curiosity that it got a Rating only 0.7 less than my previous (and serious) posting which was undeniably Zen.
kyla said 2194 days ago:
This got .7 less than your tree posting????
Ana said 2194 days ago:
No, this got 1.5 less than my tree, and .7 less than my second submission.
:)
kadenajack said 2194 days ago:
This is about as un-zen as I can imagine. It's high on impact though.
CraigMartin said 2194 days ago:
Ana, is that 0.7 less on the overall rating, or just on relevance?
You actually had me going by the way - I thought there must be some creative interpretation behind this.

My other shot (which only got two comments) got this score:
* Relevance: 3.15
* Impact: 3.23
* Composition: 3.46
* Technique: 2.92
* Quality: 3.00
* Overall: 3.152
This shot, with the car, got this score:
* Relevance: 2.00
* Impact: 2.57
* Composition: 2.86
* Technique: 2.50
* Quality: 2.50
* Overall: 2.486
I mostly posted this 'accident' because I worked on about 7 shots to post as my third, but didn't feel any of them were going to be good enough. I spent so many hours trying to find a good shot, and realized it was sort of dumb to do so...considering!
I wasn't trying to trick anyone, and actually didn't intend for this to get higher than a 1 on anything.... and so, as the score came in, I realized how close it was to my second submission, and had to laugh.

mysight said 2194 days ago:
Ana,my only care is that they made it out O.K.
I think you have to carry zen where-ever you go,
you have to see whatever happens in a zen light.
It is not only about "Satori".
zulu said 2194 days ago:
Since so many people took part in this discussion it would be ä pity if this picture didn`t get featured ;>)
kadenajack said 2194 days ago:
