Welcome on board, Roisin. I have a hatful of 'brown ribbons' as they're known - I even crafted one to commemorate them. Needless to say, it's freely available for all to display and I have to present it to you as you've pipped me for it this time -

As Oscar Wilde would have it, we are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars. The only way from here is up :)
Nice kids.

Wow, that's the lowest score I've ever personally seen. Congrats, it's an honor of sorts.

Sorry, but what does this have to do with this challenge?

I'm voting 4 because I don't feel this meets the challenge description.

A misunderstanding of the challenge with a picture taken in difficult conditions that will have interest for you but not for many others means a low score this time around.

IMO DNMC...sorry

You will score higher, if you size your photo better (there is a tutorial on how to do it) and if you adjust it to reduce the haze and increase the clarity. A levels adjustment, or even an auto adjustment, would help enormously.

I've got to assume you didn't understand the challenge topic. In addition, it comes off as just a snapshot, and there is an excessive amount of JPEG compression that is taking away a lot of the detail in this. Compression kills detail. Always use the least amount of compression you can get away with and still slip it under the 300k challenge limit.

Sorry it just seems like a snapshot to me taken with a camera phone.

DNMC... Unless I've missed something critical.
