Do you consider a 5.5 score to be bad? Could put into words what quality of picture would deserve a 5.5? |
Yes, I would consider it bad based on how well I think the photo is; looking at the photo from the technical perspective. Yes, I am biased, but technically the photo is perfect. |

No, I don't have time to sit here and vote on every challenge, and each photo. I try to comment as much as possible, but I usually only make it to the 20% mark before quitting. |

Then how would you define a score of 3.6+/-? You have over a thousand votes and your vote cast is almost 2 full points lower than what you define as a BAD picture. In my opinion if you are receiving votes of 2 points higher than you give; I don't see a justification in complaining.
Just my "respectful" two cents.

Hmmm, seems the score debate is raising it's head again :)
My 2c... While I still have to break the 6 mark (may still get there on the photojournalism thing 5.8), I consider a 5+ a good photograph. Besides, this is just for fun. |

Maybe the way in which you presented your subject matter is technically perfect but aesthetically bad ?
bazz.

I don't know... I think it's perfect. I'm stubborn too. |

If you feel that contests average a 3.5, how could you expect people to recognize the excellence of your photos? They clearly don't know any better. |

Hey take it easy on this guy, he's 85 after all (check the profile). Technical excellence may include a bit of camera shake at that age...or maybe the cataract is causing a color cast...most likely it's just senility and his score really is good, he's just forgotten. |

What is this supposed to mean? Simply because I don't want to be a member of this site anymore I suddenly don't learn so quick? How can you possibly connect those dots?

I think he was saying he's not surprised you are doing time in the 5.5's before you rise to stellar heights... |
