I'll be waiting as well as I have an ok idea for nude and no idea for the others :( Yup, its an open challenge so would like to see it included (however, has anybodt tried to enter the 'normal' open challenges and nude? (you can normally only enter one open per week). |
When I started the tournament I never expected an open challenge on a Thursday. When I saw a Thursday open challenge I was surprised. While it is one of my favourite themes ;) it does make it difficult with scores for that week. I would like to keep it to just the Exclusive Open Challenges.

Works for me then, as long as we all know :) |

| I'm feeling frustrated. My first "photogolf" entry is doing pretty well -- not a ribbon winner, but no complaints. Unfortunately I've been sick all this week. Following some dental work Wednesday, I've had a near-constant bad headache and intermittent fevers. I'm taking an antibiotic, but there's a chance that it (the amoxicillin) is causing the headache and fever. Anyway, since I'm barely functioning I don't know if I'll be able to come up with an entry for either open challenge ("A Hug And A Kiss" or "Deep DOF II"). :-( |

Am going to be well over par for hole one, have an idea for hole 2 but currently don't think its worth the 60 mile round trip so will most likely use a mulligan for this hole :(
I need a hug lol. |

I will be with you in the clubhouse as I skip hole two as well... I was away for much of last week, and now its raining on my potential shots... so I dont think it will happen. |

| I'll definitely shoot over par. 72% is par and I'll probably finish about 50%. |

what happens if we miss a hole? What's the penalty? I'm hoping to shoot something tomorrow, but I'm back to work now, and I'm not sure of the likelihood of it happening. (I think I've only missed 1 or 2 challenges at the most since January, it'll feel really weird if I miss this, especially since I won't have anything for Nudes.
So, what is the penalty? I don't know golf... |

If you miss hole, I will put it down as a mulligan (essentially, a pass). You get up to two mulligans in the 9 weeks. If you dont use your two mulligans, I will remove your lowest two scores in the 9 holes. |

oh, how nice! That works for me! It's nice having the pressure off, and hopefully I can still make time to get a shot. I'd rather have the option of dropping the lowest scores. |

| Hopefully I'll be sitting at -7 or so after hole one...I'm normally sitting +7 after my first hole :-) |

| Well... I'm up for the second hole... just submitted my "Hug and Kiss" image. Hoping for at least to make par with it. |

I'm not sure what to do....it's score, not placement,lol...so I'm prolly doomed! Have an idea, but not sure how well it will do. (My ideas usually tank around this joint, muahahaha!)
Is there someone in the Proshop that gives lessons?? |

| Well, I have decided that this wk is going to be a Mulligan....I can't seem to get out to get a shot...(we are doing major re-hab on our house...new roof, siding and an addition for a screen porch/breezeway - 360 square ft) and I just haven't been able to get out....(anyone have any cheese for my whine?) |

What could be a better subject for deep DOF than a screen? Preferably with a robber fly on it, but still...

I am a certified photographic professional (no kidding) and you are welcome to tap into my "expertise". Qualifier: look at my entries in their entirety (not just the high scores) and make up your own mind...

That is good news! I'm still sick (though luckily no fever today). I thought that not having an entry would disqualify me, and would also mean I took up a slot that someone else could have used. Thanks so much. |

| I'm in this round for deep DOF. I don't like my entry much though, might switch it out. I kind of had a creative block on this one. |
