[/quote]I agree. I looked at some of the pics the other day and didn't find too many "bizarre" or "humorous" images. Many (not all) seemed like every day, ordinary subjects taken from an uncreative angle. I'm not voting either. Good luck to those that have entered. [/quote]

Instead of not voting, why not just bash the photos that you think don't meet the challenge?
if nobody voted ...we wouldn't have this website.

well...I messed up the quote, please forgive me.

You're right. If I make it through the FS and the other things I have to do this weekend, I may just take your advice. :-)

I entered a photo that was not all that bizarre, but more for the later of the challenge...something that makes you "wonder in amazement". From comments on my photo...I see that maybe some voters didn't see that as part of the challenge description.

photo-bashing...now that sounds like a heckuva way to spend an absolutely glorious day. sounds a lot more fun than heading out to pop some pixels. yep, next time i don't know what to do with myself, i'm gonna start bashing photos...

ok, i'm back from trying to shoot some challenge entries, and i can't decide what to do...take a nap, or bash some photos...intelli, if this is your first challenge and you're that new to photography and you're above a 5, something is wrong...pm me your entry title so i can savage it and give it an appropriate bashing...please hurry before my nap-mode kicks in...

I just roll a 10-sided dice, multiply the result by the square root of the length of my cat's tail, divide by the number of paper clips on my desk, add the number of tissues still inside the box, and then substract the number of days I worked in the past month...

Patterns shmatterns. Just vote. Be an individual... and have fun.

You challenged me and I took your advice.

Stats: You have rated 226 of 226 images (100%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 54 images (24%) in this challenge.

Very uninspiring overall but it was nice to find a few really good images amongst the bunch.

I was doing great, and I am still extremely happy with my score (personal best), but I am disappointed that there are people dont believe that my photo is natural without adjusting or faking the colors. Oh well, I know its the real thing and I'm still at my best, gotta stop complaining and I rejoice in the fact that I took a shot I just love! Cant please everyone.
