It will be interesting to see if this hold up. The first Best of the Year challenge had very high scores and people expected it for the second one. Not so. The voting style may have changed on DPC and people may be more angry or stingy than previously. A bit of a "what have you done for me lately" attitude.
I'm interested to see how it pans out just from a psychology perspective. |

I entered my stronger image in the regular FS, but only because of the FSM. Then again, it may tank, sometimes I just can't figure it out.

Good point, well made and agree that the current voting style seems to be on the harsher side of nice. That said I do expect the masters submissions to garnish a higher average than a normal FS. That said I'm sure many submitters are, like me submiting their 'best' shot to the November FS because of the FSM. |

I'm predicting a flower, a tree, a shack, someone on the street, a dog, a child, a field, a bridge, a city skyline, a water drop, folds of paper, an old lady, a couple, a bowl of fruit, a macro of a bee, and an abstract black and white that no one is quite sure what it is.
You just wait and see ;)

Yep, you got me. Hey, you should put this into challenge suggestions. Whoever can get the most of these into one shot wins. |

I'm banking on that and put my best effort into my Masters' entry.....8>)
I'm sitting at 40th in the FSM, and am just happy to have been in the Top 50 and submit an entry every month.

I was hoping people would just forget the FS and that way I can make up some ground. :( :P

16 Months since I last submitted something here.
It's a fairly subtle image, so won't score brilliantly, but it's nice to be back. |
