With judges there wouldn't need to be votes given on images that is not being considered for the top 10 spots. The judges can discuss the top ten order and place them. No need to vote at all really....hmmmm don't think I would be interested...

Melethia has no formal training whatsoever, but the others you mentioned do, I think. RKT, xianart, and Bear_Music would make awesome judges.


My expertise is in blabbing, not photography. But those people up there are dedicated to photography. Pawdrix, too. He's a fanatic.


Just a thought...

Perhaps they could Jury every other Free Study. That would be 6 a year and then there might be a little momentum and potential for some change or steady departure from the usual/perennial wining styles.

eta:I am a blabbing fanatic, to be precise but at the same time I DON'T really have a great eye for seeing. In other words, I can can almost never tell the difference between a tortured mess of an image and pure genius. I look to guys like goodman, sher, posthumous, melethia etc. to show me the light and then I go back and analyze.

I do however know exactly what I'm sick and tired of seeing...lol. Anything that's been done to death will usually get my angry vote. Originality, I weigh in the high 90% zone. In that, I could comfortably say I would never be a fair judge.



Cheers!

Is there enough interest in a juried side challenge to do it before the end of the year?

I am slammed with work till the end of the month. (Haven't had a day off in two weeks, and got two more to go.)

My rough thought is that there would be a 30 day submission period, and say two weeks for the judges to look over and decide on the entries. But that would take us to the middle of December. Are we up for that?
