Hi again ;) guess you can cross "start my first ever thread" off your to do list ;)
First entry was Textures II and a whopping 4.2434
Things did get better though, just did Textures V with 6.2874
Like your attitude and if you stick with it things will only get better ;)
My first entry was in Perspective IV which scored 5.1152
We just had Perspective V which I scored 5.2089 in. I guess my perspective hasn't changed much!
My first entry in Oct 06 came off pretty well score wise (~5.7)
But what I have learned about composition, processing, etc here over the past year and a half and the 'likes' of DPC would have resulted in this as the same entry using the same capture...
It is amazing some of the advancement that occurs around here. The comments, tips, tutorials, and wonderful friendships really have made a difference in my photography.
- This was my first submission and it was to the Best of 2006 challenge and immediately got me hooked on DPC. The image scored 5.9852 and placed 249 out of 705.
Unfortunately, this image was followed by a host of poor-scoring submissions...
I've gone from mostly 4's and 5's to a a lot of high 5's and an occasional 6 as well. Fewer 4's and when I do get them , I usually know why before the voting even starts.
I still love this shot, my very first and I am proud *snifff* and my river entry right now doing worse than this one :) and that (river) is not my worst either... So, those people who thinks that very first entries are the worse images, they are wrong very much :P
