Ok... I went with these following rules...

"Make an image that whispers serenity, simplicity, harmony. Make an image as silent as can be."

and I think my image is. I don't care what zen is, or isn't at this point.

or i will go nuts before midnight... I"m gonna turn into "zen-man" or some sort.

:/

this doesn't feel like zen anyway ;-)

but it is simplicity & silence.

gonna smoke one more and then off to bed.

Hmmm... you got me thinkin' I should change my title...

"Simple harmony"
"Serenity harmonized"
"Silent harmonic whispering simplicity"

What do y'all think?

OMG...I got this all wrong...it's a cacaphony of colors and textures and motion and anger....and no time to reshoot...oh well...it's staying

Perhaps "Hallelujah Chorus in D Minor", particularly since that would have very little if anything at all to do with my picture. In which case it would be very "zen"...

But I can't use that now, or you'll all know it's mine! Back to the drawing board... And such a good title that was, too!

Yeap... mine has colors and texture as well.

I think I should change my prediction from upper 4s to upper 3s... or Brown ribbon...

WAAAAAAAAA

Mine has color. Then again, so does my B&W entry, which was apparently not a good thing...

I can never predict scores on my own work accurately. I don't even try these days!

should've shoot the other idea. damn.

edit: I'm gonna do it. crap. it's 2:04 here. tomorrow I'm gonna sleep late. :D

I'm not gonna guess on scores...because I don't know jack about the scores. But it would be nice to have no 1 votes.

Lest I get too excited like I did with On the Beach, I think I have a good title and a good shot. Here's to hoping!

It was the cyan in the border in your beach shot - you *know* better - it's your rule!

A good way to "Un-stess" is going and watch your Zen entry again... If it calms you, means that is a Zen picture! and if it is a Zen picture, you know you will do ok in the challenge ;)
