 I wasn't expecting this image to be a high scorer because of one easy-to-spot technical flaw and a few processing choices that were not of the "wow" variety.  It's a perfect capture of this particular pet's personality, though, so I'm still happy with it.  
 
 Looking forward to some voting and commenting later today; should be a fun one to vote on. |

 It's clear that the the philistine pigs are voting early on this challenge.

 If it stays over 5 then I'm happy. My original photo looks much better than the uploaded one; all the warm colors on my entry faded. |

		Looks like I'm going for the brown!
 I knew my shot wouldn't do well - I was expecting in the 4's, but I'm down in the 3's right now!  EEEEK. |

		Looking at my score I think of a scene between G'kar and Garibaldi in Babylon 5
 
 Garibaldi: Like you said, I never start a conversation unless I know where it's going, but I always leave a little room for someone to disappoint me. Thanks for not doing it.
 
 With the first 25 voters, I unfortunately can't say that. 
 
 The score IS going up but until I get some commentary about flaws it is far below where it *could* be or rather where I thought it would be. Hmmm, tis a study in human nature...but then every challenge is because art is subjective;-);-);-)
 
 O.K. enough thinking on the "why's" it was received time to go enjoy everyone else's work, vote and later leave comments. |

		just got out from voting. I say about 85% of them are not above a 5. No offense to anyone out there. But this challenge has some really bad quality shots. However there are a few that are really nice. I do admit taking photos of pets is not an easy task. Takes lots of patience from the photographer and the pet.

		Well poop. 
 
 I have had 4 comments saying awesome, cool, amazing colour. 
 
 I am 5.6
 
 mine was even a set up portrait.  Bribes, cussing and scratching, miaowing, kids screaming, dogs barking involved for all. |

		I don't think this one has settled down yet at all.  I have risen almost .5 in the last 25 votes.  I think we are going to see extremes this time around.
 
 ETA: After I posted this, went back to update I dropped .02  I just think this one is going to jump for a bit.

 I'll post this now because it won't be even close to this in a few minutes and by morning....well....I may not look! ;)
 
 Glad that I posted that while I could.  It actually was at a 5.78 by the time I signed off last night and just took a break from work to look and find THIS.....*SIGH*

 And...I just got notice that my membership is up in 19 days.  Think that's one payment I'll forego in this economy.  :) |
