Down a little in the last few votes, but nice to be north of 6.

Cant say i'm shocked--anything can happen at DPC. However--this may be one of my favorites so far this year. Should have stuck with the seascapes... ;)


5.7037, it's funny, every time I enter something other than a seascape for the free study, I wonder what I was thinking! ;) I really enjoy the seascapes, but I like to mix up the entries.

To be totally honest, if I see one more seascape win a ribbon in a Free Study, I'm putting duct tape over them.

It's going to take a long time to get back up to 7.0 this way! :P

wasn't expecting much from mine, so this is actually a little better than I thought it would do. Would be nice if it kept rising though :p

Hmmm, I don't have a 6 or a nice comment from Lutchenko. I'm really feeling left out. *sniff* *sob*! (I'd actually rather have the 6--sorry lutchenko!)

One useful, if slightly depressing, comment that suggests, indirectly, that I should have entered the other similar-but-different image I was considering. The coin-toss method of down-selecting entries is proving to be flawed. :-)

You might want to try my method for the next challenge. I show them to my wife, and the one she like the least is the entry. The one she thinks is great has been given the kiss of mediocrity.

Hey, at least she'll look. I get the "you're wasting my valuable time" sigh if I ask hubby to look at any of my photos. Heaven forbid he loses 10 seconds he could have spent on WOW! :(

ah, an ACCURATE Reverse Barometer! But, what if she says "Neither One!" then it's heads or tails, eh?

Actually, I was going back and forth between two images: one would have be the more obvious "normal" sort of choice (and an image I like very much). The other is just slightly different/unusual in that context, and I like it too. In the moment, I was enjoying the one image more than the other, so I went with that. Personal choice, not calculated-to-be-more-appealing-and-maybe-score-better choice. So, no regrets.

Well, I dunno: I think us guys are hesitant in lots of those situations: "Hunny, does this outfit make me look fat?" "Hunny, which image is better? What's wrong with the other one?! No, I'm not mad!! Nothing. Nothing's wrong. Nothing.... [silence]"

I'm just sayin, is all....

Looks like it will be one of my lowest scoring shots ever, in my bottom 5! And I think it is a good photo. Very weird.
08/01/2009 04:39:17 PM · #122
I thought for sure this one would score in my top 5.

Only takes a single 4 to pull you down off that narrow edge that is a 6.0

and down again. Ok people, it's not trolls that bring down your scores, it's posting them. I don't know why I tempt the score forum gods. I'm sorry, oh great score forum beings! I won't post the score again!
