I missed the mark completely. No excuses. First entry in a long time that was so blah that it garnered 0 comments good or bad.

Been climbing very slowly all week from it's sub 5 start. So I'm pleased. At least it's above my average.

Not going to be Top 10, but it seems like 7 comments is good these days. I'll take what I can get.

I know its been a while since I was active here but worrying about each individual vote score!? Ehhhh...
Maybe it's me, maybe I'm not taking this serious enough and call me Mr. Controversial but isn't it just a game?
Fun yeah, competative yeah but still a game?

Hang on, it seems my score has just dropped, again!
Hmmmmm not happy as it's obviously a 9+ image! Right, time to work on my 'who-voted-what-score-from-what-IPaddress-widget app' and then track then down and let the assainations begin!
;)

Actually my score has just dropped from 5.9 to 5.8.
Ahhhh well, must try harder

It looks like the first 99 voters liked it and the latest 9 voters hated it.


Votes 104-108: 1, 7, 7, 4, 2

Yup, but bokeh isn't just the circles of confusion. Bokeh is basically the aesthetic quality of the blur.

I think my image is suffering because my bokeh is not lights. However, it might be that my blur is not very aesthetic. I like the image, but the blur could be prettier.

I was preparing to vote and thought, "These aren't what I think foreground Bokehs are supposed to look like" - so I stopped before I cast a single vote and did more reseach so I could better understand. I feel far more prepared now - and far more appreciative of the images that I'm seeing. I'm wondering if some of the other voters, like me, had a preconceived idea of what it was supposed to be.

Grateful for the expanded perception and looking forward to voting when I get home this afternoon.
