Damn! Not even 5 minutes and someone hands me an extremely generous 3. Thanks to the master who just gave me a wonderful score. Maybe I can meet you someday and you can enlighten me with your talent and masterful artistry.

Sheesh!

Hey Rikki, I don't think the 1, 2, and 3 masters read the posts. We'll never see them here. I think. Well, the ones that don't leave feedback, that is.

I know Marc. They're never here. I just feel blessed by their scores. Don't we all?

I'm hanging in the mid 5's. I debated several shots of the same area and decided this was my favorite. Decent comments, but nothing spectacular.

All I know is the Ground Up people seem to care about their scores more than the Beverage people. It's boringville over there...

That being said, looks like I gotcha beat again rikki...

Still holding at almost a 6.2. I did get more comments, all nice in fact, and a fav. Pretty cool considering my past scores.

5.1 and steady. And I don't want any more comments. I get it -- it doesn't count if your neck wasn't bent backwards when shooting. I wish the contest had actually been called "looking up" if that all that was wanted. :P

This is my fourth challenge, and so far looks like my best score yet. And it seems to be creeping upward ever so slowly.

This has been a rollercoaster as far as voting goes.

My shot has been as high as 6.00 and as low as 4.33.

argh, gone down to a 5.99, I was hoping the downward trend was temporary... :( I guess I can't complain about 11/12 positive comments and 3 fav's though. If the trend in previous challenges is true, I'll get about 50 more votes, maybe I can break 6 again. :-D

Going up pretty consistently now, to a 5.3 from a 5.0. Plus I got a favorite, and a few nice comments from people who "got" it. So I feel a lot better than I did earlier this week.

Can't say I didn't see it coming, but I was still a little surprised by the number of comments I got by people who didn't see "from ground up" in my photo. Oh well, you gotta just try and hope for the best sometimes.

Now I'm excited for Coffee Shop -- I think I truly have a good entry for that one. *rubs palms together in prepartion for update button* :P

I have to admit. I am completely disappointed in the way the voting is turning out for this challenge.

I was surprised also at the results on this one. I am not disappointed in my placement(in fact I was thrilled) but I felt like there were many others that should have been ahead of mine. I am usually not so far off on my voting as I was on this one. Two of the top 10 I gave a lower score and then some of my top picks were in the 50's range. As with many of the challenges, it's how you interpret the challenge. That's what make this site fun and such a challenge. It's not only challenges you to take a good photo but also to interpret the wording of the description.
