I appreciate the nod, sir. It was a painful shot to take.

I was prepared to take it with a raised hand of triumph, with great exultation...but alas. Anyhow: GO VOLS!

If you put it in that perspective then simply perusing a photo challenge website seems so ~~utterly/rediculous~~ miniscule...

Welcome to the "~~utterly/rediculous~~ miniscule" club.

With everything going on in the world it is places like this that bring a little humanity back into the picture where friends can be made even when they are worlds apart.
With everything going on in the world this is someplace to escape and enjoy some of the little things in life that are too often not appreciated.
With everything going on in the world our little "miniscule" place here is a way to bring a miniscule little planet (compared to the universe) closer together.

"Utterly rediculous" [sp] or "miniscule" aside your opinion is heard but you know what they say about those?

Ok soap box empty for the next guy.

Um, I was being facetious in my reply to the "rEdiculously" dramatic, misspelled comment.

Oh well.

Well, it looks like some of my top picks were not seen the same way by a majority of the voters.

These also placed at 100 or lower ==> by kleski

Care to elaborate on how it's misunderstood? We'd be interested.

Above is somewhat my perspective as well. It's a little slice of escape from all the real BS with which we have to deal. This is "only" photography, for a bunch of us it's a hobby, art, diversion, entertainment, whatever. To some it's a living, some are more serious than others...

But in the big picture? It doesn't really make much difference. "Miniscule" fits pretty well. "Ridiculous"? NAH!

Excuse me. Just thought "maybe" there was more to your point of view that we were missing. Duh, indeed.

Sometimes I'm mouthy and it just a nerve with me because I'm dealing with issues of HIV and suicide in my family, so it just seemed like all this stuff on here is so small in the scheme of things. I have a love\hate relationship with DPC but for the most part I enjoy the challenges and the community at large. Sorry if I was ugly.

Maybe we could get this thread back on track and take this particular discussion to its own thread

Apology accepted. Me too..... Now lets have some fun and escape from that serious stuff for a little while.
