I want to thank all the kind folks who are giving me credit for meeting the challenge - it is indeed a camera and it is indeed a photo of said camera taken by said camera. And that's about all I can get credit for.
Lessons learned - don't take boring shots and try to do something with them "just because"; and don't edit on a laptop in the crummy lighting of an airport.
I do recognize it sucks. :-) The reason I entered it, though, is I had such a good time showing a young man (11-12 is my guess) the fun of editing pictures and such, that I let him (and alfresco) talk me into entering it even though it sucked. Oh, and I showed him the site and told him NOT to look up pictures by DrJones. His dad wrote that down....
The young man, however, had a completely delightful time reviewing the entire portfolio of Art_ROFLMAO. He really liked what he saw there. :-)
maybe your scores are dropping because people dont like your camera ahahahahahahaha, glad i didnt enter or i'd be complaining too!
Hey, I figured it would give me an advantage. When they saw that such a fantastic shot wasn't even done with a DSLR, they'd vote me 9's instead of 5's! *sigh....* Guess it didn't quite turn out that way :)
Still sittin' at 6.58. I want at LEAST my 6.7 back!!

Oh, WHAT I wouldn't give for a 6.5 on this one :-)

Yep, still planning on it. How long you willing to put up with me? Need to know whether to schedule a flight back for Saturday afternoon or Sunday. And is there common transportation from the airport to the ferry and vice versa, or is a cab the only option? I probably won't get a car if I don't really need one, and I have to drop off a coworker at the airport on Friday afternoon.
Oh, and to keep the thread on topic, I turned on scores just so I can report I have a very generous 5.0!

I'll put up with you as long as you can put up with me. How does "forever" sound? As for transportation, if you're referring to the ferry from Provincetown to Boston, yeah you can get a cab no problem. There's also shuttle busses from various points on-cape direct to Logan.
What on earth were you expecting!
There is only one shot I can recall in the entire challenge which portrays the actual camera taking the image that is not a reflection shot - Very clever idea it is too!
I got a "Meets Challenge ???" comment today. Glad I actually took a shot of the setup.
What can I say, why not google the word "mirror" and get to know this miraculous little device. Can be found in quite a few cameras. ;)
