    If you loose I will fight them to the death, in a parking lot, wearing nothing but pasties. Just for you. :)

    Don't think I am going to take 1st place at this rate, but still well ahead in second. A bump to keep the momentum going.

    1st place has shot way ahead of me in the past few days, so I am struggling to keep up. Still >30 ahead in 2nd place though, but 3rd place has just started to gain votes. I can only assume she has finished work and is embarking upon a campaign over the weekend to gain votes and rob me of my trip to portugal :(

    So if there is anyone who still could take the time to vote I would appreciate it :D

    I never asked you to do that ;)

    I'm still 32 votes ahead of 3rd, but she is gaining ground. So better keep the momentum up. Fingers crossed.

    I hope you win man, good luck.

    I want to offer critique on that pic. To me it is not based or grounded in any thing but you holding a smart phone with a layered image of your head. So the notoriety of the pic itself is not of substances other than being a 'mushroom' of your head. That's it ?

    What's it supposed to mean or convey and I guess in the end that is my critique, that it does not mean anything other than being absorbed in its indulged notoriety.

    I could be wrong, is there a purpose or message to it ?

    Feel free man, some negative critique is always welcome.

    There is no point to it, or message, it is just simply the result of several hours of brainstorming and taking 100s of photos to the positioning and focus just right.

    It was a competition to come up with an interesting and original photograph that contained the kro logo, without photoshopping it.

    I ended up playing around with the idea of my face with my eyes shut holding it front of my eyes, with the kro logo on there too. I settled with this because I though it looked a bit like two small sparrows hovering and landing on my head. The position they have lends itself to give the effect of motion, or at least it does for me.

    The only thing i don't like about it is the colour balance, it's just too orange. Ideally i wish I had taken it against a different colour background. But it was the best i could do in a few hours with a 10MB point and shooter.

    I like the pic actually, it has good ascetics and the color tint gives it a stylish feel. you're right, the crows look to be in motion

    so, again good luck !

    It was a nice phone and I coulda done with that, but in a way I am glad to win the trip. Could do with a holiday in the sun!

    And yeah just reading up about where to buy hash in portugal shouldn't be too hard to score when I get there :sifone:

    It's a weekend in a health farm/yoga centre so I do all that stuff if I want, but I reckon I'll probably want to spent the time taking in some sights and maybe hitting a few bars.
