Well if most people do what they say by not voting in the challenge that they entered. Its going to be interesting. 400 plus voting on the fashion entries and only 100 voting the Dutones.

I have entered the fashion and is shooting for the blue. but more than likely I will just break the 5.0 range


Dang I should have guessed just breaking 6.0. then maybe my score would reflect that. As of right now I am at the 5.24 range

So, what you're trying to say here is that it will be a low scoring Challenge, with YOU ribboning at a 6.1613???


no worries. there's lots of room for ribbons above my 5.1!
I was way off on this prediction.

Im in duotone... hmm mthe hopeful guess is 5.8 but with my past few entries bearly making it to a 5 even we'll see

Jumped into fashion - I'm predicting a nice dull 5.6 That might be optimistic!
02/21/2006 09:57:26 PM · #7
517th place is in the bag!

Frankly, I wish that were true, but unfortunately when people are scoring they compare, and if they give an 8 to a nice photo, based on that score they will look at others, go from that 8, and score not so good photos to 1 or 2 for every little thing that they can come up with that is wrong. Anyway, it won't matter with me. I always get below 5's, except for a very few. Not that I can see much wrong with them, bur apparently in comparison mine are considered sub standard.

Just my two cents ;)

Shoulda entered Fashion....it's what all the cool people are doing. Actually...nwo that I think about it, you should definately stay out of fashion....yes, that way I can finally get my ribbon.

I am very happy with my "duotone" entry, so hope it will score whatever I deserve..... I will be happy with a high 5's.

I would be over the moon and back again, if I reach the 6's. I don't think that possible yet, as this is only my fourth "challenge" entry, but I am allowed to DREAM, arn't I.....

If I nab 75th place I'd be ecstatic. My highest position so far is 154th. :(

P.S. I predict I'll score 5.5.

After spending an hour looking at the last duotones and my entry, and comparing it to my previous scores, I will be lucky to break a 5. I think I'll sit this one out after all.

I decided to enter duotones, though after my high in January, down to the depths of despair in February, I have been tempted to just put my camera away. I predict that this one will be at least a 5.5, but that could mean that it is 500th out of the field the way the votes have been going.
Just got a new lens today, it is a close-up lens for my Sony. Took a few shots, but the only thing it seems to allow me to do is just take shots closer, but the focus and detail is about the same as if I just used macro. I was able to get to within 9 inches of my subject and still get clarity. Not sure how it will help, but when the bees start buzzing, maybe it will serve to take some nice shots.

I dunno... still haven't shot anything... but I have a few hours left ;-)

Gonna have to be duotones... I'm just not in a mood to deal with models or makeup.

Duotoned cheese perhaps ;-)
