No cowering here! Looking back at my entry I may even give you a good run for your money pal.

I just set off the smoke detector. Hubby didn't even ask how.
Does that reflect badly on my kitchen skills?

LOL!! At least he didn't ask if the meatloaf was done!!

Unfortunately that means your final score will end up a paltry 7.3323, far behind by 9.6+ shot. :P

seems great minds think alike. i can't wait to see what everyone has come up with. shiela - you're a member! yay!

i didn't manage to burn the house down, not through want of trying. nor was medical help required. unless i try reshooting tonight. i'm considering it. i still want the effect i saw in my head, but don't know if it's possible with the tools i have to hand. well, without subsequent hospitalisation, that is...

Feel free to enter mind you, just don't expect besting this Louvre-ready masterpiece.

:P

Thanks for the heads-up. I had pretty high hopes for my entry, but I'll not submit it to humiliation. Very decent of you to let us know.

It seems as though when I think my shots are just ok lately that they do better than I expect. When I think my shots rock they dont do so well. So I am trying to think and believe real hard that my heat entry just rots. "This pic really sucks and the DPC voting crowd is going to rip it apart. Brown ribbon here I come." (I'm not buying it)

Well, my shot is FINALLY processed and in. It was in, then out, then in, then out, then a new concept which was a hard process in PP to find the right balance, but finally it is in.

It's ok. I am not sure it will rock anyone's world or anything. But I suspect a high 5'ish score because it is appealing for two specific reasons. One will be obvious, and one isn't. So it will just depend on who is more savvy to notice the second. :)
