It will only be the end of the road if I don't have a good weekend...lol
I am sitting at .0857 above my average.... haven't had a good week in any challenges...lol...seems the voting is too static, angry and unpredictable...so cynthiann...you are the one in the drivers seat...lol

jimirose, how's it going on your end?
I'm lower than my average... I hope you have a Seven entry. |

You folks with the already nice portfolios have it tough. My low starting average coupled with my entry being on pace to beat my PB by .2 would be tough for anyone. Not sure if I'm going to find time for 7s, though. Less than 2 weeks until my wedding, so free time is scarce. |
Still doing miserably. Don't let my failure be in vain! You have to go on to win the tournament so I can claim I just lost because it was inevitable against such strong competition. Find time to shoot!!!
(I'm a mom; I've got lots of pratice guilting people LOL. The kids are off on their own so I need to practice once in awhile! Don't want my skills to get "rusty," especially since I seem to be bad at rusty.) |
Haha. Color me guilted. Trying to think of good ideas so I can do you proud. ;)
Currently +1.1706 |

Hi Kelli, I'm not doing so well, -0.3350 I hope you have a great 7"s shot.
On a good note, my yellow photo will be a new personal best.
Good Luck in the knockout challenge, I hope to follow your victories.

Aawww! Thanks Marc and congrats on the yellow shot. Wanna hear a funny story. I've been helping my aunt out with some stuff at her house for like a month now. She lives about an hours drive away from me. And every day without fail I bring my camera "just in case" I see something. Yesterday I forgot. While sitting on her deck, I looked up and there were 7 vultures circling directly overhead. D'oh! Then about an hour later, 7 hot air balloons came in for a landing directly behind her house in a field! OH MY GOD!! And me without a camera. So, nothing for 7 yet. |

If you dont have anything for 7 yet, its not tragic :) It looks like I will be up against the winner of you two ( vlado was kind enough to give me a bye this week) |

I think you're scaring the competition into not competing with all your ribbons! LOL! I'll find something (I hope), but I probably won't give you a run for your money. |

You'll be fine. You've just pulled off 5 photos in a row that were above your average, so there is no stopping that momentum. |

You will be moving on for sure. I'm now below my average by -0.2595, so it's the end of the road for me. Good luck!

Only 42 entries for Lucky 7... that's not including mine, which I yet have to shoot.

Thanks Daniel. Just need to work out my lighting for my Lucky 7 shot today... |

I'm in for seven, though not happy with my shot. I'm still hoping to come up with something else before rollover. |

4.4545 is .2377 below my low average, so that's me out. of. here. pausing only to usher our generous host into the next round. Good luck, Paul - good luck y'all ... |

I'm like .1 below my average, so trumpeteer, if you aren't above, let me know so I can shoot for 7.
otherwise, congrats and good luck!!! |

.71 above my average, but I don't have anything for tonight's challenge, so it looks like I stop here. |

I had an idea -shot it.
It was useless.
No more time.
Or so I thought.
Found something.
I quite like it.
Others might not.
I'm glad I put something in.
Alicia gives good advice!
This is what the 'Challenge' in DP Challenge is all about.
You'll be glad you did! |

Well, I've submitted with little faith of getting anywhere near my average. Another that I like, that probably won't score well. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. I guess it's a good thing I'm not afraid of bringing that average back down. I'm really just sandbagging for the BYOAKC 2011! |
