Awesome!!

Every once in awhile I imaging what Roz must have gone through on this shot -- I hadn't really seen (or at least particularly noticed) someone getting an 8+ in a challenge. Can you image a vote of an 8 lowering your score!? Well, I try to imagine -- but I can't fathom it.

*I* gave this shot an 8. I actually hurt her average. Wow...that has to be some kind of week.

I'm curious as to how you all searched for your target entry. I found this part overwhelmingly laborious. I searched for the terms "first entry", "first challenge", "first submission". I got a lot of false positives from that ("first entry with this lens", etc.). I also searched by calling up profiles - did you guys know that over 88,000 people have been on DPC? That was REALLY laborious - click on the member name, scroll down to his/her first entry...

quite easy on most of them...go to photos>search and enter the title of the picture or bring up a picture and change the ID # - that doesn't always work although but generally it does

OK, I'm just gonna say it: this was a silly challenge. Some great entries, but a silly challenge. A good old free study would have made more sense.

I did two things. I used the files compiled by

Androgeus in this thread. I also browsed a few dozen profiles via profile links in active forum threads.

A positive comment from Janine, but still heading in a downward direction at the moment. 5.50 right now.

Don't worry about that. The largest concentration of high quality stuff with some more variety can often be found in the high 5's. This is where you will find entries that are good and often original, but had their share of haters.

Well, now that would have been a GREAT help. Guess I'm not patrolling the threads as well as I should :-)

More haters of it coming around now. Well, I knew I was due for a crash and burn soon.
