I was going to enter neon, but I don't know that I can find anything that will work very well.

I'm drawing a complete blank on B&W... I hope tonight's new challenges give me some inspiration.

Oh, but why? It's so simple!! Shot something and then desaturate. :)

I'm happy I entered my reflection w/o mirros in the last moment.
Better on long exposure than last time but...still sucks (under 6 so...I hope you team mates are doing better than me).

It's not just a matter fo shooting something... I'm trying to find a shot that will help us win! My long exposure is just over 6.2 now. I have a reflections entry which I think should do pretty well (at least I hope).

3.9! What did you do to make the voters mad!?

Well, here are my current entry stats... I was at 7.2 on reflections, but down now. I would love just to break 7.0!

WOW! Almost a 7! That would be sweet. I didn't enter reflections or Neon. Would not have done me any good anyway, the things I was shooting would not have scored better than the 6 I am going to get on long exposure. My score this week will end up right at the 6 range.

my reflections score really sucked so I requested that the entry should be removed.

11/09/2006 03:54:10 AM · #87

Sorry guys :/

11/10/2006 11:37:18 AM · #88

I wouldn't worry about it. I don't think any of us are in jeopardy of having our photo in a big art gallery! lol

The important part is we have fun, and learn to make the types of photos that express our idea of how the world looks.

So long as we have four submissions for the competition, it's no problem. I think we are in good shape (assuming the other members of the team submitted photos).

11/10/2006 12:51:26 PM · #90

If you submit nothing, do you get a 0?

11/10/2006 03:06:07 PM · #91

The top four scores are used (one from each photographer), so you need at least four people to submit. For example, if three submit, the scores that are averaged are the three submissions and a 0.00 for the fourth. We need to have a minimum of four different team members submit every week.

11/10/2006 03:35:08 PM · #92

Thanks. I get it now. We need 4 7's and then who cares...lol

11/10/2006 05:14:55 PM · #93

Do we have at least four different submissions in the current week's challenges? I know I have one and Boomtap does. Viktor, do you have another one in there besides the one you pulled? What about the rest of the team?

Maybe we should PM them and see what is up? I hope we have 4!

Next week I plan on entering BW for sure and maybe headwear. Just an FYI.

BTW, what are wish lists.... I've always seen them but have no clue as to what they are.

I think it is for people that would like a print. It is like your way of telling somebody to make a print of that. If I am wrong, somebody please correct me, but I think that is right. This is the first time that I have ever got one, so I am pretty stoked.

I really did not expect this photo to score this well. I figured 5.5 when I entered it.

OK, I just uploaded my BW entry. I'm not happy with what I am submitting, but I need to get something in. Maybe I can come up with something better by tomorrow. I hope all your entries are doing well so far... It would be nice to hear from the rest of the team. Did you guys submit? How are your entries scoring?
