ahem, even if the voting is not to your liking you shouldn't be identifying your image while voting is still going on.

Just remember that all voters will see your image differently and may not agree with your assessment of the quality.

Better to just let it all go. Enter what you like and forget about the score. ;o)

We are not suppose to talk about pictures that are in the voting process

Too slow :)

You just need to be a little more creative that's all. A lot of images aren't going to be top tens straight out of the camera. Join as many side challenges as you can. This will help you become a better photographer and help you find that eye.

Not blind, but I am a low voter.

I have to agree with simplefreak. I really believe that the appeal of the picture to the voter influences their vote. I have entered pictures that were not "politically corrct" and got hammered, ie border patrol on the Rio Grande River, U.S. Flag just to name a couple. Standard remarks flags do not do good on this site. Why voters do not judge pictures on the qualities of the picture instead of on their own political and personal feelings is beyond me. Do not give up. Submit pictures that are appealing to you and to hell with the voters. Be happy with yourself that you are submitting what you like because you have already found out it is hard to please.
