To be honest, it looks like an average image and it received a slightly below average score probably because of the blue background. Too intense. I'm in the same boat lately - many average shots, but when I look at them I can surely see that they are, in fact, average.
When you take your challenge photos and prep the one you want to submit, it is a good idea to pretend it is not yours and imagine what you would give it and also imagine all the competition - will it stand out?
It's all a learning experience, Scott, even (and especially) "Failing"
I'll also add that two opposing comments basically cancel each other out unless you revere one of the commenters' opinion more than the other. The score is more telling in many cases where you receive few or no comments. |
