The contest guidelines never specified they had to be real boats. (5 years and 3604 days ago)

Interesting take on theme.
But it is slightly OOF

author [banned] says:

It's supposed to be partially out of focus. It's called depth of field and I wanted to make the big boat the main focus.

kyricom says:

Very creative... but it's not a ship or a boat

author [banned] says:

Well actually I think it a carrier. But it's still a boat. A real boat? No. A boat in the game of Battleship? Yes.

kyricom says:

Actually, it would be a ship, not a boat (you can put a boat on a ship, but you can't put a ship on a boat). But, it's neither. It's a tiny piece of plastic in a toy

author [banned] says:

And for the purposes of this picture it is a piece of plastic representing a boat in the game of battleship. Once again, contest guidelines do not specify that they have to be real boats and when I play Battleship, I do not make statements in the game such as "You sank my piece of plastic".

Do you ever get sick of loosing this argument?

Mikaelbg says:

Original, I like the idea. Good luck. Ps I think those arguments don't have their place here, if someone believe a picture if out of theme why not just clic the red flag button? Moderator are here for a reason, IMO.

author [banned] says:

Oh, I don't know, I kind of like to debate the "Thinking outside the Square" entries. Besides, whenever Kyricom will argue that my entry is "Off theme" they seem to score higher in the contest.

I think this is a great idea, I think it is completely on theme because it IS a boat/ship...maybe not real but still a boat. I actually like the Depth of Field on this because it zeros in on that particular boat--not Out Of Focus. Creative, good job!

author [banned] says:

Thanks k That's what I thought too.
