It is becoming commonplace that submissions I expect to do poorly, do fairly well, and vice versa. This one is a versa. *shrug*

Sudden burst of low votes, right after some great ones...I'm afraid to go to bed!

expected to tank, but seem to be steady in the 5.5 range. I really like my shot, just couldn't come up with a decent title for it. As the week goes by I'll drop some comments and votes myself. It's finals week though, so my time is kinda short.

05/04/2011 09:38:00 AM · #15

someone voting got up on the wrong side of the bed...and is speed voting obviously...
...but can't tell as there are no comments! Where's my coffee?

Started with a 6 for the first vote. Got up this morning to a mid 4 score. I think I'm on par for a record low. Again. And this one I actually tried something I thought was creative.

Oh, no, no, no, no...don't ever do that here, lol. It will TANK! :P Creativity is it's own worst enemy to many here, lol! (Ask me how I know.)

TITLES are part of the challenge. Some vote you down if you title it nothing more than the obvious 'red shirt', 'water in glasses', etc. and others may comment on the title just because it fits the challenge and the photo very well. So, yes...or at least they are to some of us. ;)

people vote down for bad titles?? :O
what a weird thing to do on a PHOTOGRAPHY site :S

05/04/2011 10:50:19 AM · #23

SOME do. The titles are part of the challenge, thus, that is also part of your 'assignment' for the challenge. :)
My titles usually stink and I've suffered for it at times (based on comments), but I've gotten some great comments mentioning the titles as well, so...
