Only 64 entries with less than 12 hours to go?
Last minute crammers, or just lost for pixels?

There hasn't been much to feel celebratory about lately : (

I entered, it will probably bomb. I had a hard time coming up with an idea.

It has been a kind of sucky time for celbrations.
It is Ramadan and Canadian Thanksgiving though... Maybe that will pull a few pics this evening.

eh... we lost our homecoming game, and i'm having a terrible weekend >_< There'd have to be something fantastic to happen for an entry!

I don't think that it has to be a party or celebration. I thought it just had to be something to celebrate about.

I have two really cool shots, just debating on which to enter. Maybe the DPC gods will whisper in my ear and tell me which would score better.

For me, the one I like the best bombs. It sucks when you can't choose. But it is even worse when all the pics you have to pick from are bad.

No celebrations here. I would just get my hiney kicked by idnic anyway :(

Oh I meant to say my shot sucks! C'mon Alfresco, plenty of time to enter and kick my butt! Dare ya..... :P

Celebration... Should have named it irony, because of everything that has been going on.

Hey at least it'll be incredibly easy voting on this challenge, and the votes will be high up.

I just entered a shot. I'm not all that happy with it though, so it might not stay there..

With the way my last two entries have gone (bubbles and coffee shop) I think I'll sit this round out.

:(

Ok, I chose! Hope I picked the right one. We'll see. *Gives it a kiss for luck*

neeener neeener neeeeeeeeeeener

I entered one yesterday but changed it today with a better one ..ooh, I hope I picked the right one.....I hate deciding these things!

i've entered my first member challenge...here's my first opportunity to really get spanked by joey! (hey, that's something to celebrate right there!)

anyway, "celebration's" at 88 entries, with six hours to go. nobody else enter--that way i might have a shot at getting a "top 50" pic! ; ) probably not, though. my odd little sense of humor may be a bit dry for some in this challenge...but it's still a cool photo, imo! not a pic of the act of celebrating per se (although...) but more something to celebrate.

btw...fewer entries means more time for comments! here's my committment to you: i will provide a (hopefully) constructive comment on every entry in this challenge. consider the comment gauntlet thrown!
: )

Me too, Az. I had one entered, then took others and found one that made me really feel good, so I entered it instead. I love it. I'm afraid there are going to be voters that say "this doesn't look like a celebration to me" because they aren't reading the description, like Mandy showed above.

With a low number of entries I think it will be a good chance to really spend some time viewing and commenting.

Good luck all!!!

great idea. I think my goal would be commenting & voting all of the entries :D

Just entered one but what a problem! It was all in the camera (I thought) this morning after a two hour shoot. I woke up this morning just knowing what I wanted to do, really excited. Put them on the computer this pm and discovered they were bad, bad, bad! I had got the lighting very wrong. Ended up having to reshoot in artificial light ( not my forte) and I am not very happy, think it will bomb but don;t want to feel I wasted the whole day - especially since I haven't done the ironing or any cleaning!

Oh well ,,,,,,

wow, with this few entries, I may have a chance of getting under 100th place! woo hoo!
10/09/2005 06:50:16 PM · #23
Changed it for the third time! That's it - I'm off to bed so what will be, will be!!
Dare I look at the scores in the morning?????
Goodnight all

I think I am going to get my first "does not meet the challenge" comments. (It does meet the challenge IMO, just not sure anyone else will agree.)

I think I will too. I used the few words in the title to try and show my thinking though. You may want to try that.
