uhm... i haven't read all the threads explaining the whole A and B thing, so im just assuming that since i didn't see a "photo challenge A religion" that the A or B is up to the person who chooses the topic?
well, regardless, heres my entry, %100 un-edited.

title:
that other stairway...

The difference is in the rules, B can be edited, A can't.

oh i get that part, im just saying that it looks like its up to the winners *thread starters* discrescion as to whether or not its an A or a B correct? because if it wasn't, then there would be 2 versions of the same topic, religion A and religion B.
if there was a religio A thread, i would have posted my photo there because i dont like editing my photography.
but i liked the topic, so i said fuck it.
anyway, moving on.

no;
whoever wins challenge A sets challenge A
whoever wins challenge B sets challenge B
simple.

**TheDirtSyndicate** · November 21st, 2006, 01:28 PM

yeah, i kinda figured that out last night after i read a few threads.

**sezcat** · November 21st, 2006, 06:49 PM

congratulations.

**TheDirtSyndicate** · November 21st, 2006, 10:11 PM

wow... it never ceases to amaze me...
why is everyone online determined to be an asshole?

**sezcat** · November 21st, 2006, 11:20 PM

hehe, sorry, i was in a rotten mood this morning

**Mr. Mu** · November 22nd, 2006, 05:56 AM

complete2: I like your interpretation. And the composition of the actual image is great.

**claudeEGYPT** · November 22nd, 2006, 07:50 PM

Man you really dont like religion! It's Red, Dark and mysterious!

uhm... you are correct. i dont like religion, in fact i hate it. religion has been the cause of almost every war this earth has ever seen.
it makes people stupid and closeminded.... religion is like a catheter in your brain pissing away your common sense.
but the photo i took was not meant to call religion dark and mysterious (even though it is).
the title is "that other stairway..."
which is in reference to the phrase (and song title) im sure you've heard: "stairway to heaven".
well... this is "that other stairway"
so my photo was supposed to be the stairway to hell.
hope that makes sense... haha

Religion is the diarrhea of the soul.

With corn.

**samsite999** · November 23rd, 2006, 03:03 AM

Complete 2, I think you have had one of the most imagntive shots I have sceen in any of the compitions so far, fair play to you. I like it a lot. I think some people are hostial towards you in here because a wile ago you rubbed some pople up the wrong way. Its all water under the bridge now and some people should grow up and rember this is a forum a the end of the day

**TheDirtSyndicate** · November 23rd, 2006, 04:09 AM

hehe, yeah, i suppose the whole ihateyou thing kinda fucked things up for me here in the photography section of CA
haha
oh well. thats the way things go...

**samsite999** · November 23rd, 2006, 04:37 AM

so that was you then lol, we all kind of figgerd, you were harsh, but fair, but unreasonbly harsh on some occasions, can i ask why u did that mate?

**sezcat** · November 23rd, 2006, 07:46 AM

sorry dude, as i said, i was in a foul mood, and i'm super stressed... excuses excuses...

hehe, he was talking to me dude.
i did the whole ihateyou thing because i had a lot to say, you know, i wanted to rant and rave and say what was on my mind without holding anything back... i knew a lot of people would get pissed at some of the things i wanted to say. and of course, the name complete2 is kinda like my perfessional name, so i pussed out and made a new account: ihateyou
CA.org messaged me on it, (same ip address for both accounts) and they said said hey, complete2 is a longtime member here on the boards and has been a great contributer, but this ihateyou screenname is about to get you both banned. so bye bye ihateyou.
i love this place. its my favorite website on the whole internet. i visit this place about 2wice as often as i do myspace, and i've got 2 myspace accounts. hah (one regular, one music)
if i got banned from here, i dont know what i'd do.
so, i will continue to give my crits, but i'll tone them down a bit.
oh, and just so you guys know, i dont hold grudges, and i hope you dont either.

**samsite999** · November 23rd, 2006, 05:15 PM

well, i thank your for your honast ansew on that one, i dont hold grudges, i dont have a problem with you, your honasty was kind of refreshing, any how, are we going to get a pole going on this one any time soon people?

**klips** · November 24th, 2006, 01:44 AM

I'm cool with negative crits, as long as you explain them fully (hint: could you please read my latest post on my thread and respond, as I have a few questions for you)

Cheers,
Klips
