| I found "Holy Places" extremely difficult to judge and harder to comment on. A holy place is so personal that what I see as holy, someone else may not. And what other's see as holy, sometimes I don't see that way at all. Trying to view from another's perspective was difficult. I found out last challenge (negative) that I've been giving scores way too high. So this challenge, I voted much lower than I normally do, where normally I may give out 7 or 8 10s, I don't think I gave any on this one, though some probably deserved it. |

NoellaSue, there's no such thing as too high or too low if it's what you feel is right. If you're voting lower now because you learned more about what too look for that makes a photo good/bad/excellent/etc., that's fine, but please don't vote lower just because you feel like you're doing it wrong somehow. Go with your gut and don't feel bad for it. :-)

I am going to try and comment on every photo in that challenge (I entered Night Shot). I've never commented on 100% before. Sometimes I am blunt and to the point so I hope I don't offend anyone either. Here's where I stand so far:
You have rated 157 of 247 images (64%) in this challenge.

Wow - hats off to you, and many thanks as well! Depending on what comes up this weekend, I may try to do the same. Or at least get half of 'em. Great job, and thanks for doing this! |

I have a fair bit of difficulty judging whether or not the challenge is met by a lot of pictures. I tend to think of them as pictures first, so that holiness should come over as implicit in the visual message. The idea (as far as I can judge) and the composition and the technical implementation get (important) photography points. One or two titles but not many, have helped me see the 'holiness' in the picture, but taking a picture of a brick wall and giving it a title like 'The Holy Matrix of the Bricklayer' wouldn't make it for me.
It's a good thing there are lots of other people voting, so I can't do too much damage on my own. |
