It'll be tough to take our time and vote properly.

I'm expecting 500 plus entries. Impossible to vote rationally. |

Well, we do have two weeks to vote so if we vote on 35 a day that's not so bad. :-)
I've been watching the number of submissions as well and have wondered if it would pass the October Free Study (488). I would expect many really great images in this challenge. With a year of pics to choose from there shouldn't be very many poor shots...one would hope anyway.
Good luck to all of you guys!

I think everyone should submit something into this one. I mean everybody has a favorite image out of what they shot in 2004. If not a favorite, then a folder of favorites.
I know I can't really say which one of mine is my favorite, but if I had to pick from what I had I could pick one.
As it was I don't save raw files for more then a week. I just happened to find and old raw file in the trash of a computer I don't use for image processing anymore. It will do.

I think this will be a high scoring... plus, 500 images, it will be tough to vote coherently. Of course, I gave up long ago worrying about voting on all the images in a given challenge. The bigger "problem" will be that there are so many stunning images, it will be hard to rate them.

I am submitting the Image that I personally liked and I hope people can enjoy looking at it. I dont think its really a COMPETITION level entry just one that I like best.
Good luck everyone |

I'll be really interested to see how people vote on this - I hope they voters treat it similarly to the masters free study where a lot of high scores were handed out, rather than trying to vote according to a normal distribution. Not sure whether I will submit anything or not, but it would be a bit disappointing to submit your best shot and receive a 5.0 simply because your shot (while potentially a really high scorer in another challenge) was average compared to other peoples bests. |

Havn't submitted to this one yet, I've been thinking I should just randomly pic one of my 'keepers' as I don't really have any stand-out stuff from '04.
In '05 already I've had a couple of good'uns maybe I'll just wait till the 'best of 05' challenge next year. :-).
It will be interesting to see how this goes voting wise...
I wonder if the SC would consider extending the voting period? DOH. Scratch that, I see it's 2 weeks already.. :-).
Cheers, Me.

I submitted 1. It's tough to go through at least 20 cd-rs to look for the best.

Lol, after going through big majority of my pics (I never made it through all 13,000+ (and that's prob a huge underestimate cause I had gotten up to 9200 on my new camera and I only got that in June!)) I ended up with one of the photos that caught my eye right after it was taken, even without editing, and now after tweaking it for aobut 4-6 hours total, I think it's ready. ^_^ I did go back and forth between it and another, but the other just didn't catch my eye. I hope this one does okay!

i am looking forward to it starting.. i had a couple images that i wanted to enter.. however, one was taken just after new years and one was taken just BEFORE new years in 2003.. :( .. i hope this is the largest challenge yet... although it has a ways to go to get over 638

now its up to 471!
ouch i'm dead but i'm not looking to win i'm just looking for a little respect from commenters even if they don't like it or would have done something more to the image i just want them to look at it and see it for what it is nothing more.
btw i've only been taking images digitaly since june when i got my camera and it took me for ever and a day to pick this 1 out of over 4000 images.
i really whish this included film scans i've got tons of outstanding shot(if i do say so myself) in the film medium.
GL to all (BradP included ;OP)

Just noticed that it's up to 476 now. How many REALLY late entries do you think there may be now?
Good job there's 2 weeks to vote on this one!

The B&W II was 600+ entries and in the end it wasn't hard to vote and comment on at all. I don't see any problem with this challenge. Sure the standard will be higher, so you've got to up your vote and what-do-I-comment-on standard as well. Just be fair and try to comment on some.
