Actually, twenty's a score ... I figure I should post this never-been-seen-before (in my experience anyway) number before it evaporates ...

I'm really struggling to break over 5 lately. Maybe I need to stop entering challenges for a while.

Hi Gina,
We have all felt like you at some point. Just remember the reason you do photography and be honest with yourself. If you enjoy the hobby then continue as long as you like. Scores on DPC are secondary. If you like your picture then that is all that is important. DPC is just a mechanism for displaying your joy. Certainly it’s nice when you get positive feedback but that should not be your primary goal. Maybe you are putting too much pressure on yourself to come up with ideas for every single challenge. So back off a little and wait for inspiration to strike or if there is a challenge where you like the subject just go ahead and enter FOR THE FUN of it!

It's not easy to enjoy the hobby right now when I'm confined to shooting what's in my house and garden. I can't go anywhere for fear of getting infected and passing the virus on to my elderly mother.

Taking photos is a big part of who I am though, so I seem to be taking the same photos over and over again just to do something. I'm really struggling with archival challenges too because my computer is old and really sluggish so searching my archives is a real chore.

You'll often get interesting decimal patterns when the number of votes is divisible by 9 or 11 ...

Looking at some of these actually made me feel uncomfortable.

Hubby and I cringe when people hug on old movies on TV now.

"No! Stop! Six Feet!"

:D

I’ve gotten through the 6.5 mark which will be enough to take a place in my top 6 if it holds. I wasn’t expecting much out of this one so that’s cool.
