		I am awaiting the close of voting to see where in the middle ranks I end up - any position there is OK by me as the comments I have had so far are welcome and good feedback.
 
 So, just curious to know what the highest and lowest are?  I am currently at high 5.3's
 
 For sure unlikely to be a ribbon and I am happy that I have made a good effort but I know in the case of all clubs there are patterns to what is liked and gets the highest votes - how far one would/should go to "get" the highest votes is down to personal decision.  One day (sentiment of all?) I hope to get a ribbon but in the meantime I want to offer images that other members find interesting, pleasing and viewable.
 
 You never know over time one or two might fav status!
 
 How are you doing?

 The way you see other people's photos the same way you make your own! |

		| For an open challenge, 5.3 is almost certainly in the top 50%.  In a challenge that's been as complained about as this one, I'm predicting a lot of lower scores, so it will likely be top 40%, and maybe even top 30%. |

		Hi both
 
 Yes, I went through the voting of fellow "competitors" and found that for some it was hard to see "At Rest".  But still voted where I felt able to, weighting the value on the 'challenge meeting' and the photographic aspects.
 
 The way one views and votes is obviously/definately influenced by ones own likes/dislikes.  Hence my comment about (or at least alluding to) that one may not get a high vote (ribbon) simply because you have not pleased the artistic/photographic preferences of the audience.
 
 I try to base my end result on "be true to yourself" that is at least I am content that my image is good IMHO and if others like it I am well pleased.
 
 Hi Scott,
 
 My first ever challenge - Insects, I was 48th out of 137; well pleased.
 
 I note your comments about this challenge, so the final result could/will be interesting.
 
 :~)
