Oh dear ladies :o( I didn't check the new challenge till just now and am pretty upset :o( I can not leave the house :o( What am I going to do?? :o(

Hmmm... what can you see from your window? And do you have a zoom? I agree with Karma though, don't sweat it and wait for the open challenges...

You may all need to help me talk nicely to Andi (

Ecce Signum), he's here over the weekend so may need to get him to take me out somewhere....and if that involves a wheelchair and him carrying my tripod then I am gonna have to be extra nice to him!!!!

natalya - do you have a small deck or porch off your apartment? you could get some cool down on the street perspective going if you did. does anything exciting happen out your front stoop? some of the coolest street stuff i have seen involves catching someone walking thru some sweet light.

could you get something when you go out for a dr appt?
oh well my fruits and veggies seems to be stabilizing around 5.1 so i need to think up something from music or biology quickly!!!

thanks for the comments on my personification. i was going to have the feather dusters be ballerinas but i couldnt figure out how to set them up.

You're doing well Sonya! Nice numbers :)

That's understandable. I don't have anything but my dismal f&v this week either.

Thanks MAK *blushes*. Though I do believe there must be a few 7s out there, so I'm not holding my breath for a ribbon...

Here here :). I just keep watching my f&v fall - down to 5.4 now. Just getting positive comments so I'm not sure why I'm getting so many 4's & lower. Who knows. Just one of those shots I guess. I have nothing for bio or music - no time this week.

My Good has dropped ~ .15 but it's still at 6.38. WAY TO GO on your BAD Rina woo-hoo!!!!!

Thanks for the great encouragement ladies. You guys make me feel like a star! :)

Anytime we enter a shot that is better than our average work that is a smashing success! What better goal to have? When we can contribute a score to the team that is better than our personal averages we should be proud of that. Great job Jude! Rock on sister!
