Many times I have the problem choosing between 2 shots for a challenge. I have this for "Birds2" right now. What do you normally do to decide?

So frustrating....

I ask my friends. I usually go with what the majority chooses.

Sometimes someone here will offer to look at them and give you their opinion. Of course in this case, they also agree not to vote when presented with the photo in voting.

Ask for a volunteer to help. I have done that once or twice.

You think you have a problem with 2 try 20. Ugh..I have 20 good shots and I am having headaches choosing one. :(

Wish I had your problem -- usually I have 19 bad ones and one that perhaps might be good (but then again, maybe not), and I have to figure out which is the one that will not totally bomb.

Sometimes having too many good ones means your shots are all mediocre and nothing really stands out. I hope in this not the case in this challenge :)

This is indeed a valid point. Even the most successful pros will have bunches of technically perfect mediocre shots with a few standout images.
