Very happy with this performance, happier than with many higher scoring entries. A lot of comments for a FS and for the most part, they have been very positive.

There is eye candy to be found everywhere, one just has to develop the eye to see it. You, my fishy friend, live in an excellent eye candy area.

Seven really great (positive) comments, in spite of a lukewarm sort of score. Fine by me!

Good luck everyone!

I gave my highest score to a flower. Must be smoking something but thats how it went. Nice challenge and expect the first 5 to all be above 7. My own score has taken a tumble and beyond recovery. Still happy though and good luck to all. Off to bed.

I live in such an area and my picture sits at 5.2. I am not considering selling my gear though but on the other hand I am not a proffesional photographer. I do because I enjoy it.

Nah...just feeling momentarily depressed because of my scores lately Rian. And my scores are low even though I photograph with lots of passion. Maybe thats why I am feeling depressed about it.

You can't be serious. Get over others perception and do what you do with passion.

We may leapfrog each other from this point. I expect we'll end up close in palcement. I'm at 5.7265 now.

Added: Just checked again and I see I just received a

Paulbtlw comment. My entry is appealing to exactly the crowd I hoped it would. This entry has been a huge success in my book.
