I felt the need to respond more visibly to Posthumous's comment on one entry. It was also the one that Ubique couldn't find anything to like about either. I have copied my response from the photo comments. Just my own non-professional opinion on what this challenge was about.

I think the only connection is that Ubique's philosophy is he likes interesting photographs and the PHOTOGRAPHER found it interesting. We cannot know for sure what other people will find interesting, so we can only go with our own judgement. |

don't worry, I scored it according to my own feelings about it and not based on how ubiquish it is. |

Oh, I know that. I just thought it was an interesting comment. I think a lot of people stayed out of this challenge because they really couldn't figure out what it was about.
I simply entered something that I found interesting and seemed to suit. You appear to have been so-so on it, but it did well with both popular appeal and Ubique. One thing this forum proves is the adage that "you can't please everybody".

I looked through the entire challenge after the voting was over, and I really enjoyed the photos where Paul's opinion and mine diverged greatly, including yours. It was a learning experience. After all, images change the more you look at them. |

One of my greatest little pleasures here is when I receive 2 comments that conflict with each other on the same aspect of an entry.

I found it thoughtful of  Ubique to post his comments in order of his top picks. Scrolling through his comments from beginning to end became a kind of guided walk-about through this challenge. I'd buy this book too. A mild disappointment that he did not enter an image but I confess that his words have long since stolen my heart far more than his photography. I am sure such a statement will invite a cat pounce or two from his most staunch photography fans, but that is okay. More for the second mouse who always gets that damn cheese! Notably, I did miss entries from bspurgeon,  whiteroom, and  yanko . No doubt, they were all too busy pirating new Game of Thrones episodes. Well, of my two cents...that's The End. |
