advanced edtiting)

52% placement, 5.024 score my best percentage
placement in advanced editing.
Highest score to date, Fading Into Night, Triptych challenge, advanced editing, 5.614 but it only came in 48%.
Goals for 2006
Try to break at least a 6.
Try to get at least an 85% placement in a challenge.
Try to maintain an average placement in the 40-50% placement overall in challenges.
Not very high goals, but I am being realistic. I know I put too much detail in my images, so I will try to simplify, but there is still that problem with camera capability. I am not sure I can get to my goals given the camera I have, which won't be changed to a digital slr anytime soon. |
