well I thought I was atleast get a 6 on this last challenge, I admit it lost a lot of sharpness when I shrunk to 150k for DPC compared to original.
but I would enjoy knowing why 1 person thought my photo deserved a 1 and why 3 people thought it a 2, I am pretty sure it wasn't that bad!

I thought your entry was great. I gave it a 7. Someone ALWAYS gives a good photo a 1. Who knows what's going thru their heads!! |

kjennings, I have changed your large pics to a clickable thumb and a link due to their size. We try to keep the forums dial up friendly. Please post either clickable thumbs or links to the large pics in the future. Thanks. |

Ok. As I've said before, in my haste I entered the wrong photo.
Entered Photo
What should have been
I was just wondering if people got the idea what this was. Seven obviously was in time with Lance Armstrong's record seveneth Tour De France victory. A cyclist, his bike is his tool. Does this make sense? Any feedback would be great :) |

This is my best showing for a long time and I guess a little humour helped me this time .

First, I loved my entry in tools, so the score did not matter to me, although making the top 100 was nice. I was thrilled my photograph manage to touch a few who commented and that always makes it worth the entry. What surprised me was the 1's and the 2's. Since it was a candid shot and a musician in action I had no control over the lights or his position on stage. And of course with basic editing I can not spot edit and in this case I doubt that I would have taken out the purple lighting. It is what was there and it set the mood. A candid shot is not staged, you have that second to capture it or it is forever gone. I never vote a 1 or a 2 without telling the photographer why and I have had responses from them and it has made a difference in my score. I guess I am beating the proverbial dead horse but I feel better now that I have vented a bit.

Well, for it being my first challenge, I'm happy with a mid-4. I would especially like to thank those that gave it 5, 6, 7 and 8's! I'm glad that you were able to look past that darn dead pixel. This is the first time I have shot a black background and I didn't know it was there. Well, live and learn. No more black backgrounds for that camera. I guess that's just a good excuse to save up and get a new camera, right? And to the person that gave my shot a 9..my God man, what were you thinking!? Nah, seriously, thanks to all that voted on it and thanks especially to those that took the time to leave constructive comments. |

I was pleased with the comments for my first challenge entry. I cannot believe that I did as well as I did considering six people gave me a 1 or 2 ! Thanks so much for all the critiques, I will take all comments on board!
