		We gotta sanction   markwiley somehow.
 
 Dude's got the blue on every challenge shown.
 
 It can't just be 'cause he's good.
 
 There *must* be voter fraud!!!
 
 I demand a recount!!!

		| All that PLUS he has Chicago and a Drone. Basically, an unbeatable combination, if you ask me. |

		| Chicago and the drone are an advantage. The rest of it is luck. |

 Yeah, but that doesn't explain all that ribbon hog sh*t before he got the drone.

 Sure. I have one. Hasn't automatically resulted in ribbons, though a unique perspective does seem to help for some topics. Last blue I got was over a year ago and it was taken with a compact camera while riding my bike.

 That's impressive, I've never been able to get anything decent with a compact camera. So much for it being more about the photographer than the equipment, I suck with a camera phone or a point and shoot. :( |

 I actually have quite a few ribbons and top tens with a compact, as it is what I take with me when cycling. My recent red was taken with a Sony RX100 III that I just bought. Controls are a little more fiddly than the Canon G7X though. I keep accidentally changing exposure comp and shooting mode. The higher end cameras do remove some limitations and offer things you cannot get with a compact. |

 I get decent shots with a compact from time to time, but I don't even try with a camera phone because my hands are too shaky to hold it steady.

		I am amazed at how many of you are still here from back in the day. Nice to see you all, and thanks for remembering me :)
 Bear_Music, really? 11 years? I may have to brush the cobwebs off my camera again.

		I didn't show up 'til August of '06. Dunno if that makes me a geezer or middle aged by DPC standards, but I do remember you....
 
 Kinda uptight, very little sense of humor as I recall.
