Just dropped from 6.2 to 5.5

I though mine was fairly good in a quirky kind of way. I probably got 'quirky' and 'crap' mixed up there.

I have voted and commented on all the photos in this challenge. In my opinion there were some really goods ones, a lot of mediocre ones and quite a few that squished a photo in that didn't meet the challenge????

It is interesting though to see peoples take on the challenge topic. I realise that sometimes it is easy to be very narrowminded about what you think a challenge topic means and then you look at ohter peoples photos and you realise that there is a lot more to it than you first thought. Will go back tomorrow and review my scores.

Boo hiss. C'mon voters. If the score's gonna suck, make it really suck! Enough of this so-so mediocrity, let's go for it!

Monique, I have one thing to say about "squished-in" shots: it's possible that parts of a city that are hidden don't look much like a city. Maybe that's part of what makes them hidden. And after a quick run through the thumbs, I see plenty of examples of that concept.

Thanks, Doc. I briefly considered pulling out, but figured I'm not good enough to emulate you. ;) After looking through the thumbs, I'm even happier I didn't.

Haha. I know that years from now when DPC is only a memory someone will say, "Do you remember that DrAchoo guy?" and you'll say, "Wasn't he the guy that self-DQ'd that shot?" :P

Sigh. Recent voters seem to like my shot even more than the first batch. How can I be a misunderstood, underappreciated artiste if they won't vote my shots low?
