Was lucky to take this picture with that small light on the left that gives the real sense of the white....

Probably I did not match exactly the challenge. I know the colors in the front aren't so light. Btw I used very minimal editing. Not like some others fake whites...

uninteresting, haphazard, boring, does not meet challenge

This was a minimal editing challenge. That means all you can do is sharpen and resize - that's it. No cropping or other editing allowed - none. Same rule for all of us. Some of those that have bright whites have used flashes to create white backgrounds (I did for mine).

Putting others down will not help you achieve. YOU need to work on YOUR images. Taking an uninteresting photo is a recipe for disaster. Put thought into what you are going to shoot for a challenge. If you prefer to go the natural route then be prepared to walk around for a long time looking for suitable subjects that will fit the challenge. Take lots of different images that you may have seen and then review them when you get home. Take the time to compose the photo in your camera and also ensure you have good exposure. Take the shot from different angles to see if you can get the best out of the composition.

Keep at it, you'll get there. Some just get there sooner than others.

The coloured parts are not really light enough to meet my interpretation of the challenge.
