Vote 10's for dark fantasy, and 1's for portraits! :-)

Easy Texas!

I didn't say that. I was just stating what voters might be looking for.

I'd say the grey/blue toning, deep cloud cover...angelic, smoky, dark fantasy, type stuff, is the gig. Everybody does it now but she was at the forefront ...at least here on DPC. All of her work is cool but I think those attributes are quite definitive as opposed to her portrait work, for example.

My bad. Sure sounded like it was coming from what YOU were looking for, not voters in general.

ahh, that's more like it. Every vote in the last 10 has dropped me further. I'm still higher than I was expecting. Hrm.

I'll have to do an update tomorrow morning when the score has leveled out a little.

I hope the voters look deeper into her portfolio. Heida definitely shoots more than landscapes and people.

I really couldn't understand this challenge. I know she is a very talented artist, but does she really have a distinctive style? Her portfolio has a variety of shots with different processing.

Am I out to lunch?

Stating what you think a voter should be looking for, especially during voting, seems to be an attempt to sway voters who may be leaning another way. obviously if a person entered a portrait they felt that that was a defining style of Heida, after all her highest and many of her top 20 were portraits.

The words "might" and "should" are very different. I never stated what anyone "should" be looking for. I just figure if the guy is about to get his ass handed to him, I'd save him the stress and wonder and point out the possible reason why. As for my score...I don't care outside of staying above a 6.

No harm meant.

Just had a quick look at the entries and the standard appears much higher than usual this week. There are some great shots and a good mix of content too. 7+scores needed to make this weeks top5 me thinks.

Thought I had a pretty good take on this challenge... voters say otherwise, so let the suckage continue.

Please!

He was just musing....

He stated *exactly* what my impression of her work happens to be.....

What would be gained by such an attempt?

Fame? Fortune? The undying admiration of the girls?

Interesting....

You have rated 129 of 130 images (99%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 14 images (11%) in this challenge.
You have given an average score of 5.9225.

I usually vote quite a bit higher than this, yet I think that there are decidedly less images that fit *my* concept of what the challenge is....

I'm going to go back across all of them and try and comment.

Wow....I can't believe how difficult this was to vote!
09/09/2009 09:09:11 AM · #50
at least you didnt give me a 1 lol :P
ok, back to my regular scheduled show.
