OK cpurser, I challenge you to a one-on-one, single "open challenge" duel! Whoever gets the best score on the current "macro without bugs or flowers" challenge owes the other a can of coke (or other suitable beverage). Do you accept? Can you take the pressure??? :-)
May the best photographer win...no, wait, that would be you. Then...so may the WORST photographer win!! Yeah, that's it!!!
It's settled then. On Nov. 17th (did I calculate that right, when voting is over?) I'll be bringing you a nice cold coke... NO, WAIT, I GOT THAT WRONG!!! You'll be bringing ME one....yeah, that's it... yeah...
I also look forward to your next attempt at photographing another stamp on an envelope... :-)
You know, if you win, it'll be not that big a deal, as you've beaten me on every challenge entry but one so far. But, if I win, ooooohhhhh, what an upset... You'll never live it down. (And I'll never enter another challenge.) :-)
P.S. For those others of you who might be listening in on this, we work together. Explains some of the bravado going on here... :-)
