No complaints here but can I have a 1 to add to my growing collection?

Just finished voting ... and giving some "very direct feedback" via comments. Too many "snaps," too many "camera phone pics," too many "shoehorn" entries. Sorry.

Come on folks, study and emulate the best of this challenge. They are fantastic!!!!!

Guess you did better than a camera phone snap and didn't shoehorn an entry! :)

Well, I would tend to agree.

I browsed through the images and have decided to stop voting on them. I was a little let down that with a challenge titled "Science" that it is still chock full of flower and bug pictures with such creative titles as Horticulture, or the Latin name for the bug or plant photographed (said titles are the only things that link the photos to the challenge - to my way of thinking).

Can we get a "my pretty garden" challenge so we can get all of the bug and flower pictures out of the way all at once?

I'll offer a conditional apology to the bug and flower photographers...some of them are presented in a very unique way that makes them stand out and are in no way cliche or repetitive.

Oh, I'm sorry...I thought I was in the rant forum. :D

My score's slipped a couple tenths today; if I could get a few 9's and 10's that'd be great.

Thanks in advance, you're all swell.

I agree with you, but I think we already had this discussion. ;-)

Unlike my Selective Desaturation II entry (ahem), this is probably a reasonable rating for my Science entry.

Hi, just asking for info. I've been keeping up w/all the threads on Science/Religion/Atheists & so on. It's been interesting to read. But you seem disappointed in the entries for Science. Are you allowed to say what you expected to see? I would really like to know, from you or from anyone who's disappointed in the entries--what were you expecting?

I don't know what I was expecting to see...I do know that I wasn't expecting to see what I see in every other challenge. It just seems that people who have a particular niche of what they prefer to shoot manage to put that exact same thing into nearly every challenge and "shoehorn" it into the challenge by coming up with a title that fits the challenge. It isn't anything to really get wrapped around the axle over, just a little disappointing, that is all.

I did have an idea for a shot, but I figured that it would have been done by someone else...kinda wish I would have done it now. I figured there would be at least one photo of a woman holding a pregnancy test in her hand with a look of shock and horror on her face, but I didn't see it in there.
