Title: Most crazy or funny portfolio!
Post by: stocked on August 13, 2014, 09:36
I don't wanna point fingers at anyone or rant but sometimes we  stumble about a portfolio which is funny or crazy or both, my personal favorite so far is this one:

I actually do think the portfolio as a whole is some kind of art it reminds of Andy Warhol with this one:

Yoghurt anyone?  :D

I do wonder how a portfolio like this perform...

Do you have good finds that you would like to share?

+1
picture this, for the rest of the year, 400,000 new images of yoghurt
 uploaded by those contributors who complained of 100% rejections.
100% approval  per week of 400K multiplied by the number of weeks left in 2014.
will certainly make an impressive number at the next AGM . ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Huh  >:( and look for apple pie and custard and you'll see the same sort of thing.

1100 plus shots of the same orange cake/pie

It makes a joke out of microstock  :'(

This is just lazy photography  :(

If people weren't making money by doing this surely they'd lose interest at 1000 photos. Maybe not.
