Thank you so much, Barroness... I just took a second look and I appreciate better the elements that you mentioned <3

I love your comment, Kanaj, thanks for your appreciation of this and human-ness

Thank you for the 10 and kind words, [user]baroness[/user]. I truly appreciate it..

Originally, I was worried because I kept looking for my RAW/HEIF file on my iPhone and couldn't find it, so I assumed I would be disqualified. I checked the front page again and saw that I had been bumped up to blue, and I wanted to know why the original winner was DQ'd. Then I felt relieved that I had taken mine as a JPEG.

But I still feel bad for the original blue-ribbon winner because he shot in RAW. He was my choice for blue.

I expected a yellow, got the red, and then got bumped up to blue. Thank you.

By the way, this is how I made it:

Thank you once again.

Much love!
