Love the idea. Hate the art direction.

Line doesn't work. Where's here? Africa or Subway?

I agree, 'here' is not the word. maybe 'Stand still with a camera for 3 years.' would be better.
Or if you want to use that box: "How hard it is to take...? Stand here with a camera for 3 years (and you will know)." Or something. Whatever.

What is the protocol on work submitted to adsoftheworld that obviously didn't run. Such as the comp above. I wouldn't post unproduced spec work on here because it's completely fair game if someone were to take and and actually produce it.

For student ads the ad doesn't have to run. Otherwise I try to filter our comps. I thought this one did run. How can you tell it's not?

The Lions and Leopards work DID get produced and ran in the DC metro system.

Here's a link to the installation video:

If they mentioned brave or equivalent, the line would work better.

Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working

The exhibit featured 2 photographer's life work. It was about dedication more than anything else. But I hear you ... it takes a large set of balls to follow around predatory animals.
