Dave,

I'm a fan of your photography and follow your work regularly on DA. Its so dissapointing when DPC's style and direction kicks great photographers like you in the face, I guess its not the place for you because you're better than that!

Best of luck to you...

Does "last one" mean you aren't going to compete any more? That would be a shame. You have great work. I really love what you've done here and you deserved such a high score.

Hey Kiwi. 4th doesn't suck. Pretty good in such a large field. It only sucks if those around you aren't playing by the same rules.

If I would have known I could edit the hell out of an image, pull it up on a monitor and shoot it all within the rules I would have. For a 'no editing' challenge there sure is a bunch of editing going on. Sour grapes? Nah. This was all for fun. All I know is that I busted my butt to create an image that all I had to do was hit auto levels and away ya go. I did so, and I am proud of the image.

Like I said. My last one. Validation has been asked for and I won't submit. I sincerely thank all those that have left comments and kind words. Every comment was read and appreciated...
