Done :) Great bunch of entries. Good luck everyone! |
Feel better now? All that guilt erased ;) |
Not quite. Now I get to feel bad for all the comments I made that were apparently unhelpful ;) |
If it's any consolation, I was thrilled with your comment. |
I am in the same boat! |
Thanks guys :) Can't wait to see your images! |
The one you left me was nice too, 'cept you spelled color wrong......8>)

Certainly abandoned can imply one or more of those things, but the converse does not necessarily apply. |
I'm going to offer up the other side of the coin.....I did mark your comment helpful, but you missed the mark on mine as being one of the others, but not abandoned.
You happen to be incorrect, but that would have been on me to convey the abandonment properly, right?

Maybe, maybe not. Subtle things sometime slip by as we try for speed records while voting/commenting. I did try to slow down and give each entry at least 1.3 seconds versus my usual 1.1 seconds. Seriously, I did try to spend some time with these and even did a second pass, elaborating on some comments and rethinking my scoring.

I'm fine!......(Twitch, TWITCH!!!) LOL!!!
That's what makes these challenges so freakin' dificult. LOL!!! |
I hope you make it! Especially if there's a deadline extension. I'll look for your entry after voting and elaborate on my comment, or we can bring the discussion back here... |

For all that have those scores slipping downwards. I just finished voting. May the powers that be with you now, boost them up a bit. I gave out:
nine 10's
ten 9's
three 8's
twenty seven 7's
You have rated 146 of 147 images (99%) in this challenge.

Lots of great photographs in there.

Oh, good grief!
Don't even THINK that!
I'm going out of my mind watching my first 7+ score in the 2½ years I've been here slowly slipping away and watching the clock c r a w l towards regular rollover time.
If there's an extension I'm just going to be sitting here quietly crying and having a meltdown.

We can just do it here.....I'll post up what I meant.
I also want Mark to see my entry....he thinks he knows what it is......he's SO wrong!!!!

Ah this is the way to start a week: just managed to get my "Periodic Table" image in after all that suspense... AND woke up to find an affirming Posthumous comment on "Abandoned" ... the man is a genius, what can I say: when not many others have managed to notice the brilliance in my image, Don has ;-)
Score: 5.4 |

Oh you're in good shape. You shouldn't be worried about me...
I did go back and do some more adjusting, and since I was so close, I just commented on the rest.

Truly I was commenting on the strength of your subject more than its relevance to the challenge, which I had no problem with. My very first impression was that someone set fire to the thing, before I realized that it was just weathered beyond recognition. So maybe it's me who needs to convey his thoughts more eloquently! I gave this a six but keep in mind I generally score a point lower than most, something I'm gradually trying to adjust upward.
Congrats on the red! |
