In the beginning, there is no bad score. It's fun to compete against other people, but the biggest thing, especially in the beginning, is to compete against yourself and try to improve your work. I started out with a 5.5 in my first challenge, and from the on, I tried to beat my overall average or my last placement (percent-wise) in each challenge. It's terribly exciting getting a PB (beating your personal best score). After you've entered a few challenges and found out what type of average you have, then you'll know a bad score when you get them. Some people average in the mid-fours, so a high four is an incredible score -- to others, who average in the high 5s/6s, a high 4 is a terrible score. It really depends on where you fall.

I'll be asking for "what the hell did I do wrong THIS time?" after the challenge if anyone is interested. I simply ask that no one say "underrated" or "underappreciated" in their analysis. Appropriate comments might be "sucks", "what were you thinking", "can I have your camera equipment as you're obviously not doing anything useful with it" or "no, really, what were you thinking??"

Well I liked it and gave you a 6 :-)

It may be that people did not realise that the HRH letters where handles maybe?

I came 84th in my first challenge. Delighted as I thought there were some amazing shots here.
Looking forward to my next one!

Thanks for the feedback, folks - I do appreciate it. It never dawned on me that people would not see those as handles. My bad.

I saw them as handles... but gave you the dreaded 5 anyways

Seriously though, Just not particularly interesting and kindof busy IMHO.
