4.75 after 4 votes. I give up. I clearly don’t understand what the voters on here like. |
Giving up is for quitters, you’ll figure it out eventually if you stay here long enough, you need to study what does well and then it will just click :-) Mines not doing that much better either, but I don’t really look at those early votes as an indication of the end. |

It's not over complicated unless you overthink it. |

I don’t think it’s over complicated at all. I will not mark down the photos that have people in it, neither will I markdown the photos showing just architecture, albeit having said that there needs to be some context that comes with a photo, ie, if there are a bunch of people just hanging around each other and not particularly photographed in the right context - as in - amongst a group of homes - then they probably won’t get a high mark from me. |

This is so totally true, it’s better to have no expectations.... Great expectations sometimes delude the mind, I have definitely noticed this from the time I’ve been with DPC. |

I think this is why discussing a challenge beforehand is very important. |
Hopefully to help/encourage people be more open to varying interpretations of what "meets the challenge" ... |

I've got mine in. It may or may not meet voters' approval. We'll see. |

Originally posted by marnet: I have an entry for Neighborhood, in my view it shows it but I don't think it is a winning photo. I suspect that photos of some very depressing neighborhoods will be the winners in this challenge. I would be pleased to be proven wrong. |
I too hope it will not be full of depressing neighborhoods, why are people attracted to that, beauty me is far more superior. |

I think the voters will like my entry and it’s not depressing. I will be surprised if it doesn’t do well (I hope). |

Totally agree.
Otherwise this challenge would’ve been called “neighbours”, then obviously we would’ve photographed people...imho.
To me a neighbourhood is the surrounding architecture the environment it’s located in.

Which only means 2 or more houses/ dwellings.... |
Or no houses/dwellings. Neighborhood could mean a gathering of people at a local park or playground. It's what you want to make of it. |
I disagree - IMHO, a group of people in a park represents community, not “neighborhood”. By definition “neighborhood” is an area, while a group of people is a community. Calling a group of people a neighborhood, is like calling an astronaut a spaceship.
