21st - "Wot's...Uh The Deal?"

Cheltenham, Glos

(from the 1972 album Obscured By Clouds)

Taken to the cleaners again at Monotony...how come I'm always either (a) in jail; or (b) bankrupt by round three; or (c) landing on a squillion hotel-ed Park Lane?

Bit like life, really....

Cool interpretation, well done.

Maaike Huizer		23-Nov-2009 08:10
What a fabulous idea to use this. Excellent angle and DOF.

Sheila		23-Nov-2009 05:56
LOL! Excellent idea and shot.

I find this game brings out the worst in people...greed, greed & more greed :))

Cindi Smith		22-Nov-2009 05:21
I'm not good at it either.....I like your idea and very clever for the challenge!

Inga Morozoff		22-Nov-2009 01:35
Wonderful shot Doug!

Mieke WA Minkjan		22-Nov-2009 00:32
great idea!!!

Dennis Warren		21-Nov-2009 23:46
Yeah, busted...they finally caught up with you!

Nancy Good		21-Nov-2009 23:24
So, did you go to jail? LOL My hubby bugged me so much about how much he loves Monopoly that I actually bought the game for us a month ago - we still haven't played! ;-)

Chris		21-Nov-2009 21:27
It has to be the worst board game in the world - but it's given you the perfect image for today - brilliant.

Mairéad		21-Nov-2009 21:07
This is really well done - makes Monopoly look glamourous and exciting, like a casino game, rather than one with goes on for ever and ends up in squabbling! V

tinkerb		21-Nov-2009 20:19
Excellent comp & execution - I always remember the dread of rounding that corner!

globalgadabout		21-Nov-2009 19:39
hats off for this witty, perceptive, and absorbing image...V

McGarva		21-Nov-2009 18:18
I do love this ... the game associated with the great british institute we live in ... love the DOF, reflection and focus on the "go directly to jail" ... truly wonderful image ... V

marita toftgard		21-Nov-2009 16:09
fantastic shot v

Walter Otto Koenig		21-Nov-2009 16:08
You can add to that "Why do I always have to be banker?". Cool shot Doug and a great take on one of the more diufficult titles.

Phillip Normanton		21-Nov-2009 15:51
You might be rubbish at it, but you made the game look very upmarket and glamorous - corker of a shot :o))

Kevin Chester		21-Nov-2009 15:45
Thats a massive coincidence, we have just got our Monopoly out for the first time in years, that shows how bad the weather is. It doubles up nice for "Money" too.

Kathryn		21-Nov-2009 15:42
Love your name for it, I will use that one. I like to play it when I have a couple of days to spare ... Use your 'get out of jail free' card.

Johnny JAG		21-Nov-2009 15:09
Money, it's a gas

borisalex		21-Nov-2009 15:05
Obsession? Beautiful image anyway!

monica memoli		21-Nov-2009 13:43
Beautiful image and idea.

Stephanie		21-Nov-2009 12:52
Squillion??? Hope you don't have to spend too much time in the clinker! We'd miss your images on Pbase!

John Reynolds LRPS		21-Nov-2009 12:51
Good one again Doug. John

Barbara Heide		21-Nov-2009 12:24
200$... is it worth it?

Ann...		21-Nov-2009 12:18
Great idea - this really is one of the most frustrating games and as you say, a bit like life!! Clever composition and lighting but you can't have the Top Hat, it's mine ;))
