More stupid carrots...

More stupid carrots...

You should all have me banned from APUG for wasting the gallery's photo storage space...

Oh well...

we don't need no stinking filter...
Carrots, by nature, probably aren't very intelligent. Your use of them, however, is quite the opposite.
Perhaps we should ban your own self criticism, but definitely not your images. I would sorely miss them, as well as the results of your lens endeavors.

This may not be the strongest of your images, but enjoyable all the same. I love the light you arrest. Every time.

carrots are cool...I actually aquired some ...just because...

Thank you, gentlemen!

I agree, Thom, that this isn't one of my stronger images, but it has its own place and reasons. I think sometimes, one of the traps we fall into is trying to make a masterpiece every time, not unlike trying to write a piece of music that is a crescendo or climax all the way through. Portfolios need their ebb and flow, and the ebb is as necessary as the flow.....
 
I've enjoyed the series thus far....but they do beg the question:

Have your excellent photographs brought sufficient light to the apparently huge problem of carrot unemployment in your area?

In any case I applaud your willingness to use your talent to address this hot button local issue.
 
Deeply symbolic?
As part of a series, this would gain strength and add it to the others as well.
