My run of 6's seems to have dried up for the time being, LOL :-) However, this damn shot seems to be creeping up, and it will end up over 5.8 if I'm not careful (5.76 right now). I think this is the first time I've ever wished a photo would go lower. I'm afraid of the punishment, especially if you win this contest, NikonJeb, tee hee :-)

Edit to add: Never mind on hoping it creeps back down - I just got my average over 5.8 and see that this photo is making the average creep back down!

Actually, I was *really* hoping that this entry was a 6+ shot, but it sure doesn't look that way.

I seem to be in the mid-5 doldrums.

Or I'm just a BORING MEDIOCRE photographer!

I don't know if i should be happy that this may help my overall average increase a tad or sad because of the punishment i'm going to have to pay...lol

I'm going to get pasted with punishment when this is over.

Just a note to all of you out there choose your subject wisely in the end the time you take will pay off.( a bowl of rice, what was I thinking, I mean where was my head? Hey I know next time a bowl of brown rice. Yeah brown rice that's genius pure genius.)

Oh, PUH-LEEEEEEZE!!!!!!!!

Wanna compare average vote received or high scores????

Them's just the facts, 'cause you're also an original and creative photographer as well.

Everybody look at this and tell me how a less than Boring Mediocre photog could take this!



Me, Master of the Rambling Missive left the comment......EXQUISITE!!!!!, 'cause I couldn't say it any better with a paragraph.

So....shaddup, dear!......8>)

Update: I have managed to crawl up to a point where I won't do well, but I'm outta this contest, probably.....which means that I'll fade into anonymity.....

My free study is in the running for the mark here can I use that score instead? I have a feeling that there is a nasty punishment headed my way for being so far off the mark. "GULP"

Sorry, Jeb, you're not a boring, mediocre photographer either :-)

Looks like I'm out on this one:
