| Godallmighty. Just check out the left side of your friggin profile page. Looks like a couple of ribbons took fertility drugs and multiplied into their own community. Good stuff! |

| As my New Zealand friend says, CHOICE. Anothes ribbon...I have a great idea for special conditions on an upcoming challenge: "If your username is kiwiness, you cannot enter"...just kidding!!! you make us all want to do better...lovely shot by the way. Love your explanation and the feeling you still have about winning these darn eluive things...you are an asset, don't hold back, don't ever NOT enter just because you might win another ribbon. |

I dont believe you are just 1 person. It´s humanly impossible to score that many ribbons.
I guess Kiwiness is just a name of a group of professional photographers in Germany.
Yeah that´s the reason that there are so few members from germany, it´s all a big conspiracy.
Or you´re a robot....
Well anyway, just wanted to say something different then just congrats haha |
