So, a few days ago I noticed that the clock on my laptop was acting up and so I took some steps to fixing the issue, at least I thought I fixed the issue. My clock was 5 minutes off..

The second lesson I learned is that I was having a difficult time deciding which image to enter for the Elements challenge and instead of at least entering one of the two, I kept tweaking and thinking about which one to enter.

So when I thought I had 5 minutes left before rollover and I was about to enter an image, I get the disheartning "Calculating Results" page.

Damn.

So let my mistake be a lesson to you.

Check your clocks. And having one entry is better than not having one at all.

In case you were interested...

Here were the two images I was deciding between and a third which I ruled out...

Well, here's a third lesson.

You're not allowed to post outtakes while voting is ongoing.

The reason is that any attention during the voting period should be reserved for those photos which were submitted in time.

The OP should re-post in the outtakes thread posted automatically at rollover ...
