I'll have a look at yours if you have a look at mine. ;)

Anyone else willing to give me their opinion on which of my two shots I should enter... feedback welcome... need to know which will be punished less by the DPC voters.

My email is listed on my profile page, if anyone needs another opinion.

Fire away, anyone who wants my opinion.....

I'll be up for about 45 minutes yet.....

I've got mine in, I like it, it should tank by DPC standards, but I think y'all will like what you see next week.

I liked mine to begin with. then there was something I didn't like, then I tried to fix it. Then I changed it. Then I brought the new one in. Now I'm wondering whether I should go back to the first iteration.

HELP!!! vlado, quick, send me your stuff to look at! I need to stop working on mine!

When 3+ people tell me the one I've ruled out is better than the one I submitted... I change my submission. :) Thanks...

Hey Jeanne - yeah, you can use the 10-22, but don't go to the widest end of it - stay toward the 22, or you'll seriously warp people. Then again, they sound like the kind of folks who don't mind being seriously warped, so that could be OK, too. I've seen what Paul recommends as well - take a bunch of shots moving across the group then stitch them together. You might want to try it both ways. When you do a one shot group shot - shoot in rapid fire mode a couple of times. It'll be your best bet of getting everyone with their eyes open even if it means you need to cut and paste a face or two. :-) Have fun and be careful!

All done, I got all 220 people into the shot. Everyone posed really well ... except for my husband who had his head turned in my favorite shot!!! Of course.
I even photoshopped one missing person in, he showed up two minutes after the shooting finished.
It came out OK. I stood in the pickup bed on a small little kitchen type ladder. I had the cameras and lenses on the pickup cap in easy reach.
So I guess I'm satisfied.

Very cool, Jeanne! And just photoshop your hubby in from another frame. :-)

David - nice to see you in a challenge! This one is right up your alley, too. And thanks for the advice you sent on wedding shoots, too - very much appreciated!

Kelli, hope the hubby's ankle is improving.

I'm happy with how my flower ended up it is a new top 5 for me. Kind of sad cause it knocked Bob and Spencer off my front page but oh well. Not sure if I'll ever get rid of my Paulie Girl :-)
