| Yep, moving right along with a sub-5 score again. When I get into one of these streaks, I can really string 'em up! :-) |

Just now I have 3 pictures in voting stage - a 4 and something, a 5 and a 6
The contre-jour is the 4 :-( |

Started at 4 this morning, thankfully climbed a little bit now.
I estimated a 6, so as long as I crawl up 0.1 over the next 6 days I will be content.. My freestudy is doing MUCH better.

I go more gut and heart than technical merit.
My list is
1st If it jumps out and is a "wow" 8-10
2nd Meets the challenge but does not jump 6-8
3rd Questionable if it meets challenge 4-5
4th Does not meet challenge or is just a dud 1-3
5th No vote if it is obvious broken editing rules.
Of which I̢۪ve seen four that slipped by. |
I vote the same way. I think some people are forgetting this is a "Contre-jour" challenge. Your image is SUPPOSED to be into the light and alot of times should have lens flare. |
that's not true at all. . .contre-jour isn't all about lens flare. but i would agree that i've seen a few that clearly aren't shot into main source of light.
that said, i followed the rules and am still receiving a sub-5 score.
ah well!
:o) |

Oh I'm not saying it should always have lens flare, but it is definitely an effect often used in contre-jour. Also another misconception I've seen as from a comment I recieved is that some people think fill light can't be used while it indeed can be used. You don't have to point the camera toward the only light source used. |

Second entry after a weak submission on my first challenge. Really hoping to get above a 6 with this one or some more comments on why it's low. |

| Why are people upset about getting low scores when there voting average is giving people 4.1 to 4.9 when they give out votes?? |

| So many sunset pics... Is that really contre-jour? I would say no if there isn't any other subject in teh photo other than a the sunset. |

Stuck at a gig all by myself and lying on the desk were my customer's 1DMark IIs, 16-35 and a 5D with 24-70 2.8L mounted. CF cards scattered about. I was waiting for the OS to reinstall, only a couple of hours till rollover and my eh-prepared/mediocre entry is back at the crib, the sun is going down outside--what would YOU do?
I used his 5D and edited on my not so calibrated laptop. :-) And the score seems to be ok for a shoehorn job.

Yeah, I know there's another thread on the definitions of Contre-jour. My photo isn't doing good at all, one of my worst entries ever. Which sux because I don't think it's even close to my worst entry. I'm thinking of DQ'ing myself. |
