Let's not start spreading vicious rumors here. It's 5.48! 0.02 off the proverbial median. But I do agree I voted higher on this one. I kept a pretty loose interpretation of sentinel and almost always let the picture do the talking. However, one picture in particular I had to ding although I thought it was excellent. I just couldn't see it as reflecting the challenge.

Yeah, but it's not *THE* SoL, the New York Harbor one. Those New Yorkers are pretty literal about stuff like that :-)

Stats: You have rated 125 of 128 images (98%) in this challenge.
You have given an average score of 5.8880.
I did my best to counter act those low voters. Oh and I voted earlier this morning so no blaming me for the recent run of low votes. |

Actually, if you'd really done your best, your average cast would be somewhere around 8.71. :-b

Ah ha! Your warrior votes are getting soft and generous...;-P
For this challenge, my average vote dropped well below my usual forgiving nature. Lately, I have begun to assess images as a more critical thinker and I weigh photos differently now than in the past. I can't decide if that's good or bad yet.
No single image really stood out to me as a DNMC except...that atrocious image of YOU dressed up as GROG!
Did Wendy take that photo? No wonder she got a 4...

You're getting more analytical?! Argh! You gave me the 4! Actually, I have multiple 4s, so both you and doc low-balled me. Wow... former teammates, too. Oh the humanity!

Hmmmmm...I don't vote to have "fun" at other people's expense.
In fact, my overall average vote cast is 6.5...;-) |
SORRY! I was so carefully wording my post :) that I was slow and your post finished earlier than mine hence the unfortunate timing and the wrong conclusion! You have done a lot to save our scores so badly severed by the narrow minded interpretation by a small band of heavy handed trolls! (well, this is too carefully worded again! ;)
I went to bed (Australian EST) with 5.8, now I am slightly over 6. Things are improving! :)
PS Ironically this post has again hit the entirely wrong sequence! I'd better go and take some photos of a marble in a bean stack!

You are imagining things or someone is hijacking my schtick. I did think of doing that, since Grog WOULD guard his cave to protect his females and younglings. Didn't do it, however. Couldn't find any good approximation of a cave.

@Steve...don't get your Groggy feathers in a bunch! Poor Jason, he has to suffer through all of my imaginations and I just said that to tease him and Wendy.
@Wendy...not me! PuppyBear was bored this morning...HE gave you the 4...;-P
@Marnet...no worries. As I voter, I'm secure in my own limitations of which being a troll is not one of them! I'm looking forward to seeing which image is yours when the challenge is over...;-) |

bear?! I should have known. He was mad because of the whole gradient vs non-gradient issue! I've been betrayed by our fearless leader! Oh the humanity x 2!

Just got the inevitable 1 bomb. There's always someone dropping them.

They liked mine because I got a 2. If you are quick enough you can sometimes catch them voting by looking at profiles of people online... :)

I really feel like my image is super underrated. Sure, its not the epitome of 'Sentinel' but its not a shoe horn either, and I think the subject is sharp, with good colors and a pleasing composition. I am really not understanding the score. |

I have already voted if you want to send me your entry (won't change my vote)... just so I can see and let you know what I thought... Only if you want.
