He's right and this post is very strange in its timing. Last night for the first time and before I saw this tread, I went through the entire Challenge archive. I was looking at the ribbon shots, reading photographers comments and learning. In that process, I noticed a commonality in one genre, it was very very noticeable and HC has just highlighted it and it certainly supports pawdrix's original thought.

8/28/2005 D&L - Delicate & Lovely by Librodo: Asian teen draped in green head scarf

4/17/2005 People II - Breeze by Philos31: Asian girl draped in blue head scarf

10/10/2004 Defining Feature - Eyes by Librodo: Asian girl draped in gold head scarf

3/14/2004 Portrait - Porte Ressami by kiwiness: Middle eastern girl draped in red head scarf

12/29/2002 B&W Portrait - All Creation by Shiiizzzam: Middle eastern woman draped in B&W head scarf

12/22/2002 Body Parts Challenge - Open up your Eyes by Carsten: Boy's eyes only this time thru paper

9/1/2002 Candid Challenge - Old woman in Train by Hudz: Middle eastern woman draped in woolen head scarf

I don't know if it's a bad thing or not, perhaps it's influenced by the famous Afghani girl on the National Geographic cover. It is significant though, especially in all the challenges going back to 2002 no similar image has won any ribbon except Blue.


Very impressive post KiwiPix. Thanks for doing all that work and sharing it with us.

My pleasure, it was just a rsult of extraordinary timing. I was looking through the challenge archive - which is verry interesting incidentally - and by about page 12 the similarity of all those winning shots stood out like dogs balls. So I taught myself a new skill, thanks to the DPC Tutorials, about how to post thumbs and links :)
