This Photo of a Potato Sold for $1M

"I use the potato as a proxy for the ontological study of the human experience..."

*strokes chin, swirls brandy*

Yes... Yes indeed.

This is just stupidity. It comes down to someone with stupid amounts of money wanted to make a statement that he had stupid amounts of money.

The one and only photo of monumental moment in time, that has value. But this potato picture - stupidity.

I gotta send that guy a link to my new vegetable gallery on my site

"I see commonalities between humans and potatoes that speak to our relationship as individuals within a collective species." - Um, okay, sure.

I could buy 504 new Nikon D500s for that much money!

I have a photo of some soup I'd be willing to part with for much less. Tell him to give me a call.

Peter Lik is probably pissed off now that he knows he could have made millions with photos that are probably much simpler than the ones he's been using to scam wannabe art aficionados with.

And here I am chasing Red Tail Hawks and Bald Eagles..

Its Given me a laugh

I have always said us mere mortals get it wrong,the top names expand the boundaries

It isn't a practical joke? The quotes alone are outer limits. :very_drunk:

For the month of February, or March if it's already spoken for. Phenomenal idea and we can call it the whatever that guys name is who bought it challenge. AND you must tell whatever crap it is your potato picture represents.

Brilliant Don and I'm in.
