No more side challenges for me for a while. Maybe if I take a break and just do what I do and shoot whatever I shoot whenever I want without any pressure then I'll get something good. Dont' think I'll ever be good enough for DPC though. The coveted ribbons will probably never see my front page. sigh.... okay I'm done being depressed.... turning OFF the update button and just sit back til next week for verification that my shot sucks.

edit to put my stuff after.... the quote.

The first 5 or 6 voters were in one accord; the 7th one was not.

I'm in, and scoring just below my average....

Well below my average ::sigh:: This may be a VERY short side challenge for me!

This kind of surprises me.

The real difficulty with an average of 4.69 is to limbo under it. I am now at a giddying 3.7. Worse still, I get a bye because Jeger has far more important things to do looking after his nearest and dearest -

nice and eeeasy does it...

Trust me you have nothing to worry about. I've been so busy this week that when I sat down last night to catch my breath, I fell asleep. I woke up at 12:01 and realized I had forgotten to enter my shot. Soooooo, you're good to go.

Well, gadion, I think this one's all yours! I was on vacation at my mom's, so I didn't have any lighting, backdrops, etc. I have something in, but I can't imagine it will make it anywhere near my average.

You think wrong, Wendy. I'm 1.03 under my average. You'll win for sure.

Alright! I love a good competition!

So - Paul - next we're doing Rusted II?

I couldn't be more underwhelmed.

LOL! It still seems like if I don't beat my own average I should be out! But we'll see where it ends up; right now I'm only -.16 so it's quite possible I'll at least get to my average.
08/16/2010 12:51:33 PM · #198
Finally climbed above my average...this is going to be a long week.

Don't be too sure! I'm currently at -.7

There could be a race after all!

Kevin...I'm .3 points below my average and still dropping. I'm sure you'll win the match-up.
