Yes!! This is shock art here! Great job!

Shock art is one term, GROSS is another That looks like it was rediculously painful, burst your toe like a baloon...

Wtf....

Don't you think you're going too far for a contest entry? I mean smashing your toes for a good pic, is a bit extreme

That's disturbing :S

Oh my, glad that's not my toe, hope it's all better now.

Ouchh!

I am going to assume you staged this and I must say, it's an impressive effect. GL

But if you didn't? I applaud you and hope the pain pills are working

Didn't we just see this one in a previous contest, or one very similar?

It was removed after less than a day, never finished a contest...

IT'S REAL! I KNOW IT IS!... Just like SANTA!! tee hehehehe... AWESOME SHOT!!! BEST EXECUTION I'VE SEEN!

I went out and found some old rusty nails today cause I wonna try it too... just not sure which hand I wonna stab yet...

Very impressing

It can't be real MnM, if a nail were driven into a hand from the back like this then the blood pattern would not be going up the nail like it is! LOL or perhaps I might be over analyzing this?

In that case, good to see it back. GL

Oh you Bastard Locks.....LOL

Horrible and fascinating....... ouch!

Oh my God ! Even if this was staged I can still feel the pain :S Horribly fascinating shot. And I knew it was you.

Well the blood could be up the nail if you were to have tried to pull it out a bit

ouch.. nice work ..GL

I think locks has been watching too much "Dexter"...but GREAT SHOT author. Very nice detail and intriguing subject matter.

And I thought that the guy who destroyed his toes with some marble was extreme

Congrats James!

I feel as though part of the image that should be showing is missing, yet at the same time maybe the left wall is showing too much. Nonetheless great find, I love these types of buildings that spark an interest of what could be left inside.

Great shot

I love old buildings and this one is amazing!

Don't use a flash if you can avoid it. Daylight is always the best but flash will ruin a photo than improve it most of the time. Cropping closer to the dog might have helped.
