some of us need to be a scientist to figue these rules. i still don't know what you did to warrant a DQ.

Very nice image, I think the desat was a perfect choice and very well done. As for the DQ, not as big fan of the rule or how it has been applied past or present. Congrats on a top image!

Regardless of the DQ, 44 8's, 28 7's, 9's, and 10's from dpc'ers says all that needs to be said about your image. Beautiful, creative, enjoyable, and I would even say, true art.

Well, it's one rule that I think is a bit over the top and should be addressed. I may be wrong, but I feel it was probably DQ'd because of the black border you added which is for the most part distinguishable around the actual image, but on the edge where your hand is and the border meets your black board it no longer looks like a border. At least it doesn't on my calibrated monitors. It has to clearly be defined as a border. If I add a border to my photos it's always a small black border, but I won't add it if there is a lot of black on any of the edges where it gets lost as it does here.

It's a pretty silly rule, and I agree with most if not all the rest, but to ME...if you can clearly see a black border (or sometimes white depending on the photo) on 3 of the edges it's pretty darn safe to assume that there is a border on the fourth side of the photo even if it blends in with the background. How many people add a border to only three sides of a photo. Answer...none. People either border two sides or the whole image.

I've seen it time and time again on here where a black border added to a black background gets a DQ. If you had added a white border for instance the photo would still have a blue ribbon next to it. Again, maybe there is some other reason that it was DQ'ed that I'm not seeing, but that's my take.

Great photo BTW...

It's not the black border Dave, it's that I partially coloured a petal in and not the whole petal...yes, you read that right

This is not very nice and I had no trouble with the image, and all looked ok. changing color to part or all of your image all looks legal.

Comment by h2:
This is really sad, Enzo. I'm afraid, though, paulbtlw is right, it's the partially red petal where you created "a new image area". Absolutely minor in my eyes, doesn't add anything to the image - but rules are rules :(
