You've got me worried Ryan. I've got the same number of views, but they are hesitant to vote. Not a good sign.

Methinks this challenge's scoring is going to attract the wrath of the SC. Cannot believe the high scores, must be a belated April Fool's joke..

Why? It wasn't quite a free study, but it sure had a LOT of wiggle room for interpretations. I dislike shoehorns, but all sorts of stuff shows up in assorted "newspapers", so we have to be pretty generous here.

I liked a LOT of them!

Julie, it means disregard for the challenge topic, taking any old photo and using the title to try and convince us it fits into the challenge.

Let's say the challenge is "Eagles" - you'd expect to see birds, but some wise guy might take a photo of a plate of scrambled eggs and title it something like: "this COULD have turned into an eagle"

This is an example of a shoehorned image. Completely title-driven.

Back on topic....

I am currently smiling. I should probably turn off my scores so profound disappointment doesn't set in later.

Mark missed the ma-ark, Mark missed the ma-ark...

I should be so lucky that my missed shots are 5.6-ers. That's .5 above my average.... and .48 below his.

Meanwhile, Mine fell from 7.5 to 6.1 between vote 5 and 20.

Thanks, but Yo_Spiff is the true shoehorn expert!

My shoehorn is gaining some traction, or at least the detractors are more "minority" than they appeared when they came out this morning.

My first entry in almost two years. Yes, total shoehorn, but it's nice to have something on the site again (even if it is below 5.0).
