This particular design is ironic/bittersweet, and my message behind it is: it might look like a fairground or circus, but it isn't. We see colourful pictures and winning designs. But don't get blinded by that! It's always hard work, and not so easily done!
Let's compare crowd working with a fairground...
ok
no
Really interesting concept. Eager to see more examples. Smart, bittersweet and funny!
I am glad that you like it! Yes, i wanted to try the bittersweet way here....
very nice dear cy.Lovely colors, jazzy reds and titles of crowdworking!. cool work.
Dear Cy_,
I feel that you've found a really expressive way to present what Crowdworking is to you . It is a very heavy message in there which you've managed to craft perfectly via the "circus" metaphor. I assume that the titles are sarcastic in connection to the pictures.
Just a curiosity now - why are you still participating in crowdworking? Or will you stop now that you've realized it is a bitter world (for you)?
One more thing. You've mentioned that you did not use third party material. So, the photographs are yours? Or do you own the righ to use them? Thank you for clarifying this. :)
Hugs, Diana
Hi Diana! Thank you very much for your feedback! I would like to answer your questions:
1) No, i won't stop participating in crowdworking. I've just begun, here at jovoto, and like it very much.
If you look at my other displayed designs i already did for this project, you will see many different aspects of crowd working, some are positive, some are negative, i talk about gaining energy, losing energy, winning, working for nothing, having fun, being disappointed - and of cause all of this different feelings are in me, sometimes more, sometimes less.

2) Yes, these photographs are all mine!
I hope i could answer your questions! Thanks, Cy_
Dear Cy_,
Thank you for picking up on my questions. Your answers clarify your submission(s) even better. I would suggest to add to your description what you've just mentioned:
"This particular design is ironic/bittersweet, and my message behind it is: it might look like a fairground or circus, but it isn't. We see colourful pictures and winning designs. But don't get blinded by that! It's always hard work, and not so easily done!"
Otherwise it could be interpreted wrong, because a "circus" has many very strong connotations to different people. :)
Great photographs! You've put quite some time into this concept and design. Thank you!
Diana
Thank you for your suggestion, Diana! Yes, it's a good idea to add the description i did above. I will do that. It will help everyone to understand my designs even better! Greetings, Cy_
Powerful images with very strong concept! Love the photographs a lot! Congratulations!
Great photography! very well put together in terms of crowdworking i get your unique intension! well done!
Dear Cy_ your photographs are wonderful and very pointedly complemented with text. I would have liked to see more aspects of crowdwork presented in this manner!
Clowns can be scary! I think there's high subtlety with this sarcastic tone and i really like the result!
