This is defintely not a Bottom 10 finish but this is DPC and I'm determined to continue to enter images that meet the challenge and fight for that coveted Brown Ribbon! I've come close the last few challenges. I knew this wouldn't score well as in 6+ because there is nothing WOW about it. As you both have said, it's a nice photo but most people won't know this is Hak "The Hammer" Goldberg from EPSN. He's a Horse Race Analyst. He puts up his picks before each race. God help you if you made the same picks! At least on TV he's not that good. EPSN used to run a segment called The Longshot before each race sponsored by Budweiser. That was another, geez, I hope I didn't pick that one. It never came in, hence the longshot, but the horses they picked weren't all that bad. Finally though they had two of them come in in a span of a few months and it was no longer taboo.

Bottom line, I'm going to need to be even more pedestrian to get that Ribbon without entering something just completely horrible. Thanks for the kind words!

I've been out of circulation for awhile too. I can't believe this only got a 5.8. Things may have got extra harsh since our last foray. It was a super image as I said in my initial comments and I would have thought it clears 6.0 easily.

Very plain. Much like a snapshot.

Great lines and colors

The white line in the sky is very distracting. The building on the left should have been cropped. A 50% zoom on this to focus on the nice art deco would have been much better for the time of day this was taken.

The wall is very distracting. It's so big and bright, it really becomes the focus.

Way too light (due to the bright sky) and overall too busy (background)
