I have three challenge entries going right now, successively going down in score by date - my free study is the lowest at 5.02.
So now my question is .... should I pull my entry for the macro challenge which would, if I play the odds, be headed for a 4. something before the challenge even begins?

Someone said this is a disease. I think they're right.

Cycles run in three's. Didn't you know that?! :-)

Your Macro entry therefore will be a 6.7890. :-D

Free Studies tend to be the cliche of photos. Evenly lit Landscape or Animal in action. But its all good. :)

Yeaaaah, that's right! Keep rising babey, keep in rIIIIIIsing! I was down at 5.0, but it've went up 0.5 points in 20 votes, that means it can rise a bit more, eh?

Seems strange to me!

10 votes check: 5.0
20 votes check: 5.2
40 votes check: 5.4
50 votes check: 5.6 and yes this one may(?) appear in my front page....

Do the math!
at x votes:

60: 5.8
70: 6.0
80: 6.2
90: 6.4
100:6.6
110:6.8
120:7.0 (starting to turn into quite the score)
130:7.2
140:7.4
150:7.6

Don't think you'll get more votes than that. Point is, at 7.6 this one will stay on your profile quite some time =)

Seems entering was a bad idea. I predict ending at 3.1 to 3.5 max.

oh my! I really liked my shot, but I figured it would still be one of my typical 5.6-5.8 freestudy shots.

I don't mark them down as that would be petty but hey.

Anyone else feel the same?


I knew there was some reason I didn't like you! :P

Most of my free studies are left overs from challenges. I don't have much of a chance to do anything else. Usually it's something a little quirky that happened. Though this month's free study isn't a leftover.

I disagree here... They may well be from the same shoot, but not outtakes. An open challenge is likely to be Basic editing, whereas the FS is Advanced. So they may want to have two cracks at it with different editing.

Don't see anything wrong at all with it and don't think one challenge should be judged by another.

Well. Looks like I might have my first 6+ in 6 months and my highest score in *counts on fingers* 16 months.
