Maybe, but 5 is a dream vote for my entry. I do think I captured the look and feel of the original fairly well, which is what will kill my entry.

I'm in the same boat.

I have no boat.. I am gasping for air!

It would seem that my image is performing better than expected, although not great :)

Some great shot's in this one, I gave a high number of "over 7's" and a few "troll-ish" votes handed out too.

Sub-5. I haven't had a 6 for over three months now. I'm looking for a mentor. Any volunteers?

Thanks, now I know who to blame for all the low votes. (Myself, for entering something like this.)

It would take someone with a 6+ average to be capable of mentoring you Deb. I'm always willing to offer feedback, however.

Oh, and...

Bombing out like this isn't bad at all when you expect it. Hoping for some good comments, though.

Wouldn't it be nice if people voted on the quality of the shot and not how many there are ... that's what I try to keep in mind when I vote on a zillion landscapes and flower shots and water droplets and macro bugs and so on and so on... I am not going to give out low votes unless it's because they are technically or creatively deficient.

Saker, the problem with these shots, IMO, is that many seemed focused, not so much on reprodicing the shot, but on making an approximation and then going crazy on making the eyes green. Many of them look alien for crying out loud. But hey, I dont even have an entry so maybe I should just get outta this thread.

Received a comment from "Hidden During Voting".

A wise decision to comment anonymously for this challenge:-):-)
