hmmm...it seems that Ctf poster has no sense of humor (or human kindness). Don't pay any attention to his/her post. What a shmuck! Geeze, lighten up, ctf-er. Life is worth laughing at sometimes!

I don't think it's a funny shot. I hate the centered composition and the equipment on the ground looks distracting, the tree to the right distracts from the figure and I dislike black and white!

Wow...I didn't think this photo would get people so fired up...light'n up people. I mean't this to be a humorous entry. It's not what you think...we were moving storage space and my friend decided to save time and energy by piling all the garden equipment on himself. I thought he made such a unique sight, I clicked this shot. Funny thing is that he probably has never used any of this equipment himself...but he did look like a gardenator...

I guess the point of this shot is to create emotion...for me it creates an emotion of humor...BTW...that Arnold Schwarzenegger...if you are going criticize someone you need to get your Ps and Qs correct and also Arnold would be quite upset at you...

this shot bugs me. it seems so fake. i sure don't wear all my tools while i'm gardening. nothin's dirty. seems so staged. and if it isn't, a much better image would have been having this guy actually doing some gardening instead of posing like arnold swarzenegger. the gardenator... yeah right!

This shot keeps getting to me... it is so "over the top" but so human at the same time. "How deeply seated in the human breast is the liking for gardeners and gardening " (Tennyson). But this guy is going too far... it's the posture, the equipment, the B&W... it's a funny shot but a serious one. Is this really his work? Erichocinc

What a marvellous title! It only needs a WeedBusters logo ;-)
