probably neck and neck and the difference is in how many votes we have. I have more than any posted so far, now over 250. If I get to 265 votes I will post my score. I think Judi and hahn23 are both close too. :)

Over 250 votes with a 1618 ... not that it means anything more than a Top 20 spot maybe.

I don't expect to ribbon. But, I'm still in the chase. At this moment, 249 votes. Depends on the last hour voters. (And, the algorithm sweep of the <20% voters and the pattern voters.)

Well, as everyone here knows, it's ultimately the absolute Average Vote that determines rank order and ribbons, not average vote * # of votes ... and yours is higher than mine right now despite my calculated net of 1618 to your 1603. ;-)

You hate the voters, and yet this is going to be your second best score so far??? Sometimes it is better to look objectively at it and try to see what those looking at your photo who do not have any emothional attachment to it see, and thus why your score is as it is. Also asking post challenge if the comments are not giving you ideas as to why the score was low.

I am sitting just above 5.1 Seeing I missed a step in my PP due to the lack of time, (forgot to do it on the final edit, whereas I had on an earlier version), I am not surprised nor bitter at the voters noticing it and marking it down as a result (just pissed off at myself instead)

I just have realized over the last few months on here that I need to develop my own style. I feel like I have been trying to conform to what is acceptable on this particular site, and trying to please the almighty "voters". I've just started out and I plan to really take this seriously in the future. I have things that I want to try, and certain things I like, and I need to develop my own preferences instead of putting all my *emotions* and effort into the challenges here, only to often be disappointed and feel beat down.

Your choice
I am here to try and get me to photograph new things, use techniques I normally would not use, and in ways I have never really tried before. Also, it gets the camera out weekly.
Before, I found myself shooting only for myself, taking the same type of shot, and getting no honest feedback from people about them, and hence nothing improved. I kept being disappointed with much that I took, with no real solutions coming in as to what i could change. Some people call it style, I found it to be error prone.
I don't photograph here for what the voters will like, but I find that from the feedback here, the photos I take for myself when on holidays are much better..............
Try not be be as emotionally involved with your photos, and photograph both for yourslef and here, and use what you learn here in the rest of your photos, as bad habits developed early are harder to overcome later
