Due to the various interpretations of POV, I would guess that a 6.6 may crack the top 10. There are a number of really excellent images in this challenge, so I would not be surprised at all if the scores for the firs pager are even higher...

There are some guys voting low in the end. Is it possible to have someone deliberately voting low to attack the other participants? I cannot understand why I have just received a 3 on my photo.

It happens all the time. However, many of those bozos don't vote on 20% so their vote doesn't count...But some do vote low and their votes count !

Good luck...

Welcome to DPC one must be very careful when you start to complain about the votes you get when you enter an image into a challenge. You can get carrried away with what you think it is worth and be disapointed in the end. People see images in their own way and I can only hope that the people that gave you the 3's that you mentioned were kind enough to leave you a comment on how they feel about your efforts and how you might want to try to improve.

You should also be aware that others can see what you do as well and I only hope that since you brought this up that you are kind enough to leave comments for the 1's,2's and 3's that you have left for others because with averages like this I would like to think that you helped others to understand why YOU gave them 3's on their photos.

I usually try to comment on as many photos as I'm inspired to. I actually would love if a comment was required on votes less than 4, this would make people think on why they don't like a photo.

I'm just a newbie here, I'm learning about how to be coherent why my votes and I've improved from the first challenge that I voted. Certainly still improving...

On this particular challenge, I've voted many 3's and 2's on bad photos, and voted 6-10 on good photos. Regular photos, I usually give 4-5.

Regarding the votes on my own photo, it all depends on the point of view of each voter, I know... But my photo is not a bad photo in this challenge. I've been receiving 5-7 mostly during the week. And now at the end, I received some 2-4... This looks to be some people who are trying to low down the competitors, maybe using another username to do so. This is dirty.
