Wow that one person who got that comment should feel really happy about getting that one comment. Irregardless of what their score is, They made an impression on you to get your one comment.

I need to finish voting and try to start commenting.

Well I started at my top ones with commenting and then got sidetracked so that one is all I got to comment on. But yes it is my favorite of the bunch. :)

I will give you a reason to turn on your update button again, I went up from 5.5047 to 5.5858 .. although now people are so bored of commenting I am not getting any more comments (12 is not a bad no.)

(did I mention I don't like being tortured alone :P)

edit : wrong score

Not too bad, seems to be a top score for any of my photos thus far... which, in a sense, is sad...

A favorite! Wuuu! ;-) I will be pleased if it hangs there. I thought it was a good pic and good concept, but I know it needs some attention.

I would really like to finish 5.5+. My score has been bouncing around that area. It seems like every time I check my score it is on the other side of 5.5 (one time higher, one time lower).

"Shallow depth of field is often used to isolate a subject from its surrounding environment or to make it stand out. Find a creative use of a shallow depth of field for this week's challenge."

I think that the main problem with voting on this challenge is that poeople are unaware what does CREATIVE use of shallow depth mean. I've seen so many good macro shots on this challenge but they are just a good example of shallow depth, not creative... Shallow depth of field has to make a dictinction or some kind of connection between the object in focus and the rest of the picture.
...just my way of looking at this challenge...

I understand your frustration Zigomar. However, please refrain from posting an image that is currently undergoing the voting process.

Thanks.

I brought it up in this discussion

zigomar, as Rikki states, it is inappropriate to discuss specific entries in the current voting. I have removed the link to the specific entry from your post.
12/25/2005 07:08:35 PM · #196
apologees to everyone, this was my first post ever in any forum on this site, my mistake..:-)
good luck to all of you

I like how the bagheads have Christmas hats on too.

My score is too horrible to bother mentioning, I just wanted to comment on the Christmas hats. :)
