I'm surprised yours didn't do better, MaryO. I really liked the contrast of the vine and the wire.

Sorry to tell you, though, I don't know that I'll be able to come through and win it all for you. I'm gonna need big help to get past this week.

Glad a few people liked it but even if my score had come up a little above my average I had no chance of beating you! Congrats :-)

Looks like you have your choice of 2 challenges for this week? Surely you can find a nice S-curve at a wedding!

Just to clarify, only the S-Curve challenge is part of this side-challenge knockout. Round 4 will be whatever is announced next Sunday/Monday.

Cheers

Surprisingly, I am at about .45 over my average on a shot that I didn't think would perform very well.

S-curve should be a popular challenge. I already have a good subject in mind.

I'm not going to concede yet, but it looks really good for you. I'm at 4.9x, about .5 below my average...

I'm going to concede. LOL! I'm at 4.3. I don't think I'll even make it to a 5.

I'm going to need it. It looks like round 3 is yours for the taking! I'm up on my average, but almost imperceptibly so.

I've dropped a little. About 0.08 below my average now.
 08/30/2010 06:49:05 PM · #396
Currently .2 below average. And I thought I had mine beat easily this week...

Whoops! Update button reveals only .12 below now.

Oh my word, Rod! I'm only just this minute finding out that I'm through to the next round.. LOL!

I just assumed that jimirose beat my sorry average last round... but he didn't enter. *sigh*

So, here we are... I'm .04 BELOW my average.

Game on! :D
