Normally I would probaly be bitching about my FS score, but as it's edging quietly up towards a solid 6, I really can't complain :-)

Hopes and expectations are two distinct things. I was expecting this, but hoping for more.

Still hanging around the around the 6. I've never had four sixes in a row before. I almost had five once, save for the 5.9797 in between.

It's solidifying itself above a six. I am satisfied. If it stays, I will follow my longest ever run of sub-sixes (nine) with my longest run of six-pluses.

Hanging on to a 6.2xx... quite happy, given the quality of the entries!

I figured this wouldn't be to everyone's taste, so I'm not disappointed in the votes and the slow drop, but no comments at 80+ votes tells me I'm not really connecting with anyone. I thought it was pretty darn good, but it's still lacking something, it appears.

Still doing well and moving up slowly. I'm happy with this as I haven't entered anything in at least a month. It would be great if this could break my top 5 for a change.

I actually feel the same way about my own entry. But then on the other hand in the past I have had low scoring entries that I felt deserved to score higher then they did.

Hey, voters, you are clearly pressing the wrong key, you want the one that looks like this ---->9 not this ---->6 ...

I know, I know, soo similar, but really, get it right, this is the image you want to press ---->9 for.... Duh.. Can't believe this crap.

Well for a free study I can't complain and it's doing better than expected. 6 is all I wanted. Not my usual style of photo but glad I got lucky with this photo. Being into landscapes my reflexes rather replicates that of a doped snail.

I've been hovering with the six mark for the last 20 votes or so, its a bit stressful not knowing which side its going rest on.

That's nice of you to say - I actually thought I'd lost my way a little with this comment series and this was going to be the last set. You've inspired me to try to continue.

The 'logo' associated with the award was always rubbish so I'll produce a new one (with an eye motif) which I'll dish out from this challenge forwards.

I do need to get better at specifically targeting those images that don't necessarily jump out at a first viewing though - I think I've lost that over the year or so I've been doing this.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Paul

Glad to be able to provide that encouragement. I always look forward to hopefully getting one. I was a bit disappointed that my entry last month did not catch your unconventional eye.

I hate that. sometimes, I'd just rather it be down in the 5.8s just to alleviate the stress.
