Tomorrow at midnight. Our first deadline is getting closer and I am sure many of you have been doing some happy long exposure shooting. You might also have been tempted to look at the neon around you or found some good reflections. Either way, the challenges/subjects in this first week in WPL3 have in my opinion been fun to work with.
I don't think the 24-hour challenge counts (Scott might want to correct me there).

I went out to shoot for the long exposure challenge... But the weather became CRAZY so I have to sleep on my idea and pray for a better wx tomorrow :o) Hope the rest of you/us did better???

I took a few the other night, but I'm not overly impressed, so I'll be out again soon. Good luck!

Long Exposure is in the bag. Took me ages to chose, but it's done now and submitted. Hoping it will end on the right side of 5.5. :)

My long exposure entry is doing ok, didn't expect much but today I got the strangest comment on any challenge entry I think, makes me wonder if I got the wow recipe all wrong LOL

Good work, hope you make it to the magic number.
My Reflection is doing better than Long Exposure which is only at 5.3361. Not many comments but a fave :)
B/w is unknown territory for me, but I am thinking, thinking, thinking :)

Heh hee! That's a fun comment :-) I read the first part as on a scale of zero to negative two, so it could've been worse! My score is the S. I'm going for an under 5 score so far... trying to push update enough times to push the score over 5, but it's not working yet.

Ah well, a little bump here for the Ice&Us thread. Glad you're all doing so well to support last-minute me! Thanks for that and keep going strong with those scores.

11/09/2006 11:49:18 AM · #17

Do you think our opponents can figure our strategy, not posting any of the really awsome scores we are getting for those hot shots :) we have going?

I am trying to think in b&w but my life is too colourful it seems ...... but I have a shot lined up of me, without headwear, and I am calling it "the mad hatter". ;)

Well done team, we got a good average this first week.
Congratulations to David! That Blue ribbon sets the standard for us, let's go for more 7's!

Edit: The F/stops here, Congratulations! Way To Go!

Way to go team - we ended up with an average above 6 this week.
We have our first victory and let's go get another one this week when we meet Team DMNC.

Best of luck to you all ... and to our opponents.
