Just been voting on the first batch and there are some really good photos in this challenge.

I think we'll be light on comments considering the recent Commenting Frenzy on the 'other' challenge.

I'm actually laughing out loud. Is there a shorter description of one's perceived poor performance? I can't think of one.

I have the feeling the voting bars for quite a few shots is going to look like a bad histogram with big spikes on either end. About a third of the submissions (and some of the better looking images) feature a main subject that is reflecting the main light source. Some folks are going to say that is DNMC, and some are going to be fine with that, but there are about a dozen shots that are both lovely and nail the challenge, the rest of us will suffer through a pretty low scoring challenge aggregate score.

True - I absolutely used my light as my subject but still scoring super low! Argh

The assignment says: 'the light source (not being the sun) should also be the main subject', so if the light source one uses must be the main subject, it should be visible (in some form or other) in the photo and a reflection fits the contest in my opinion. As the sun is out, all subjects getting their light from the sun, one way or other, are out too, as I read it.

I think I just got a couple of 1's while writing this message, because when I started writing I had 29 votes/44 views and more points, 4.57something as I remember. Looks like: if they can't see what it is, it can't be good. ha ha. Thanks anyway voters, for not letting me know why you don't like my photo, but I do like it and that's what really matters.

Wow, this challenge has been brutal. I started this morning at 6 a.m. at 4.444, by 9 a.m. I was down to 3.94, and now I am at 4.49, its been a hell of a ride... Oh well, I knew it wouldn't score well, but I had fun doing it so its all good...
