Plastic dolls and cars, pictures that are too small, punky kids, and worse, punky adults! |

Well since you mentioned children, cats, kittens and flowers...my turn I have my own pet peeve with photos...two of them to be exact...GUNS and DRUGS! I know we don't see them in every challenge but I can't think of the last time either one of them got above a 5 from me. I won't give them a 1 just because I don't like them if they are technically good but also I won't give them a 10 cause of my strong dislike of the subject.

I have just marked all the Macro entries and i'm sorry but i am sure that my scoring of the 'bugs' got progressively lower. I didn't mean it but there was just so many of them. They are all technically great, but i just had that deja vu feeling on every other picture.

Kevrobertson, Im glad you told us that ... I just went and uped all my votes for maco bugs by 2 or 3 marks to counter balance the drop. I love macro bug shots keep them coming.

This is not true for me & many others, I suspect. I WILL shoot whatever I fancy regardless of how I believe others will perceive it.

WORD! I just figured out how to shoot with the coupler & the 50mmm & I found a dead bubble bee tonight. I too will continue with buggy shots!

If you have any, it very well could be -- we all know the top photographers have none.

Just waiting for nature to run its course. :p
