'Sup POTNers!

Haven't started a lounge thread in ages, and thought this might be fun. What's the weirdest feedback you've received (positive, negative, in person, or online) about one of your photos?

The oddest feedback I've received was for a Fashion Week runway photo on my flickr gallery:

"Excellent, I love your white balance"

Of all the the things to highlight on a photo...the white balance? Especially because before runway shows start, the director of photography holds up a giant white balance card in front of all the photographers so everyone in the pit can set their custom WB exactly the same. ? :-| ?
