I'm just confused by the term "all photos must have been taken by you"

I have a feeling your ribbon will stand. Good luck though!

Originally posted by Alexkc: Hi Ken, I had seen your case. I don't know if I'll get a DQ for this shot but your situation was pretty different: you got the DQ for not using the image as a texture. I simply used it as a blurred background. It was not the main subject of the photo I shot. But soon we'll have news from SC.

Nice photo. I read your comments about the photo background. I figured it was a photo back there but couldn't be sure....so I voted as if you really went up to a high-rise and set something up by a window.

I recently got a DQ for this image.

This was an EXPERT editing challenge. I was DQ'd because I used a photo that I did not produce myself - on the face of my model. I got permission from the photographer first.

The DQ reason simply states: All photos used must have been taken by you. If this DQ reason was spread around fairly, then the Pea Pods may be #1.

Oh well, I've been in forum disputes before and all it does is get people ranting and raving ! I'll take my medicine and take the DQ and dream over your ribbon !!

I just wish there was a way to be fair to all.

Could make top three with a ribbon. It's my kind of entry....meets the challenge like most of the entries but is different from all the rest.

I don't really think any of the Lego entries "stand out"...except for mine of course ! However, I see this one in the top three because of it's lines of uniformity.

Ghostly comment? So....no one can sign up and view 500 images ....comment on one without being a ghost account? I'd report the post and see what goes BOO !

Bordering on spectacular...(ala Dan Akroid in the Dragnet movie (Remake) They are also, alas Sadly lacking in ashetic composition. Try a different subject matter next time, with your technical skills, you could score much higher.
