Here are my picks for most under-rated, all ones that I scored either 9 or 10. And, no, none of them are mine.
I'm going to go on record as suggesting that we should rename this challenge "Blown-Out Highlight Detail on Over Exposed Backgounds" ;)
placed 120th, scored 5.445
This image has really outstanding lighting and exposure. While I recognize that the crop is a tad tight, and the balanced cup "feels" tense, I'm just stunned at it's placement. I had it down as a top-20!
placed 33rd, scored 6.080
placed 14th, scored 6.517
placed 46th, scored 5.919
and some that I'd say were "almost there" but had technical flaws that held them back:
-- amazingly, placed 107th?!
