Look at the winning and other high scoring pictures and see what the difference is compared to the ones with lower scores.

Rule # 1 read your comments and think about them - that's what the voters did or didn't like about the photo.
The comment doesn't even have to be 100% correct - it just tells you how the photo was perceived. Change the voters perceptions next time.
Technical issues will kill a photo faster than anything unless it has one of the most amazing and original concepts ever seen on this site - and even then, don't plan to ribbon. |
