My picture in "Despair" is getting very mixed reviews. The people who see what it is are saying it is excellent. Some who don't see it are writing and saying if I explain it they would give me a better mark if they understood what it was because they think the photography is good. I now understand that some people may have never seen anything like this before so they wouldn't know how to vote on it. I didn't realize this at first and kept the title brief. I guess the title should have been more descriptive. Can I give a hint to what the picture is?

The same thing is happening with my Despair show but I agree with everyone. Picture should stand on it's own and just take this as a learning experience.

Thanks for your opinions. I respect your views.

If someone asked specifically for certain information, you can send that person a Private Message or email without violating the rules...I myself prefer to wait to answer until after the voting though, as that way you get a truer measure of the photo's effectiveness.

I am the total opposite. If someone is confused by my photo then I will write them and explain. No one has got mad and I think if they are confused then help them understand or they shouldn't vote on the photo because they are clueless.

I would want you to do the same to me, but that rarely happens because I take time to study the photos and try to figure out what they are telling me and if I can't figure it out then I go to the next picture without voting and come back to it later. People need to take time to vote right and constructively.
