It is hard, isn't it? |
I'm currently in the distance challenge and my entry fits the challenge specifications but is an original idea (I actually thought most people would have shots like mine, but there you go). It is not fairing very well for being different.
My entry in "Red" was looking outside the square and it faired badly. Yes the picture was cluttered (thanks to the commenter who helped me to understand this rule for future challenges) but you don't necessarily score better for having an original idea.
I recently competed in the 'pencil' challenge. Mine was knitting needles. There were only two entries as knitting needles and they were quite differently composed. Still I got a newbie who's comment was "Too many chopsticks and knitting needles". Since when is "2" too many - Sheessh |
Hey, my wife did the other knitting needles, and she got the same comment from the same person. I was surprised when I saw the comment too, there were more dart boards than there were knitting needles. Anyway, I thought that was funny.
