Some really "GREAT" images here, but I have only given one "10" so far.....

Well I really screwed this challenge up and it's my fault. I read the challenge description but didn't read the challenge details. So I have ended up with IMO a great shot but DNMC.

When I seen the challenge topic I looked it up on the net and found what I thought it meant and viewed samples. But by not reading the details I deserve whatever score I end up with.

Thanks for the ones that has commented and I totally agree with you. I'm just sorry I had a great photo entered into a wrong challenge. I don't want anyone thinking I was trying to put "eye candy" up and hope for a good score. I know DPC votes better than that and I believe my score as it is now LOW :) is fair.

Sorry to everyone for not reading the directions before entering.

My 2nd ever challenge.

Average on the first one was 4.7, just kinda hoping this one will do a little better.

Not a bad start, but once again, nothing fantastic.

just got thru voting. i noticed a whole lot of images where the subject just has a single illuminated area or is side-lit or similar. i don't doubt that that people used a torch etc to illuminate the subject (as per the challenge details), but if they've just held the light source stationary have they really 'painted with light'? i didn't vote these images down, but what do others think?

Dang... folks really don't like mine... and this one I worked the hardest at trying to create. Oh well, on to the next one!

WTF?!?!?!?!?! Are you kidding? This is wrong on so many levels. The shot is lovely, crisp, technically sound, well composed, AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

I know how you feel, I'm currently going through the same thing in the 'Odd Couple' challenge. I love my photo and I'm very proud of it but the voters say otherwise; 4.7!!! (I'm chalking it up as experience).

Hope your score goes up.

Well, 4.7's an improvement over the 4.58 I earned in my first challenge (duotone II, 505th place)... let's see if it goes up any...

Does it have a moving light source, and meet the challenge?

I've marked down some wonderful pictures because they didn't meet the challenge. It's a shame, but what's the point of having a theme for the challenge if people will just ignore it?

Does it show some squiggly point of light drawing a shape in the image? NO - Does it use a flashlight - which moved quite a lot - to enlighten my scene - YES.

Good stuff. :-)

Is it obvious that you've lit your scene with something other than a flash (ie your moving flashlight), or does it just look like it was lit with 'speckled moonlight filtering through a tree canopy' kind of thing?
