I don't have any goals yet, but I guess now would be a good time to start. These aren't necessarily for the year, but more ongoing...
- Score a 6.5
- Get my average above 5.5
- Enter at least 2 challenges a month
- Win a ribbon
- Become a member
- World domination
- Maintain a comments ratio of at least 2:1
- 1000 comments |

I have never set any goals for myself in this venue... and so far I have succeeded beyond belief.

That's quite an ambitious list you've set for yourself, Ken. Just keep at it and you can achieve anything! :) |

| I've been doing pretty well at keeping my resolutions. I think they might count as goals. :) |

| I seem to remember that I put down my goal for 2006 in a thread in January which was to photograph Prince. I was hoping that he'd announce a tour and come over the UK. Ah well. |

My long-term goal: set no goals.
So far, I've done really well.

My goal was to take pictures I like and develop a portfolio of good pictures.
As such, I did 5 challenges in a row where I was really proud of the picture. My average score was 4.8642
Then I slipped a little. 3 of the last 5 I pretty much just did so I could enter the challenge (partly because of a competition I'm in), but 2 I'm still proud of. My average score was 4.6798
Now I can happily report that I have 3 photos entered into challenges and I'm proud of all 3. Their average score is currently 4.7396
I seem to be accidentally perfecting the art of taking a good picture that still scores low. And *not* by not meeting the challenge: that's too easy. I call it the art of sucking.

Mine too and I have been able to produce a few images that I am happy with. So it's going well, but I feel I need to put more time and energy and do better. |
