And now I am below 6 :-(

they are shifting your votes towards mine :-]

I was going to use your name in the challenge, but changed it last minute. I am glad I did, because apparently one can just take an "in focus" picture and designate it "Focuspoint". I'll tell you my idea later, because I am not sure about the "during the challenge" discussion rules. I've seen some weird things on here lately.

Well... I think I just may not have as unbiased of a perspective on the photographs if I'm one of the ones competing in the challenge. It's just something I feel better about.

So, last night after 10 votes, I was happy, but not paying much attention to it, but... today... after 36 votes, Ohhhhhhhhhhh yeeeahhhh! What an HONOR to be scoring well in one with this many amazing images in it. Woo Hoo!

Not voted yet, but after scanning through the images I can honestly say I was VERY impressed with the quality of the submissions. Think this will be a high scoring challenge indeed!

Well the 7.16 was nice while it lasted, not anymore. I seem to be doubting my existence here more and more.

Mine isn't doing anywhere near as well as I'd hoped, my first two votes were 7s but it's been crashing ever since. I'm not majorly surprised though, there are a good few entries that are really stunning, the competition is fierce! Hope everyone else is happier with their scores just now.

If I got inside a large rocket, then had it aimed down into a large canyon... and had someone press the red button... my score would still reach the dirt before I did at this rate :) Some sinister voting going on! Let the highest of the low scores rise victorious in the end!!!

so much for staying above 5.8 :)

Come on, I am .02 away from 6! By my calulations a single vote of 7 will bring me to 6 with a .01 of leeway.

So get to it, you! But then nobody else vote, OK?

Nevermind... I'm there... :-)

It's been a slow voting day and the last 6 votes have averaged 7, it's rare (for me) when a 7 lowers my score but am one happy bunny :) Some excellent images on display folks!

Well some real belt level voters since a day after this opened. I have watched my steady decline from a 5.8+ down now to 5.3 and falling, 95 votes with 0 comments :) A real solid entry, or so I thought :)
