Well, this picture of a lime in "Long Exposure" this past September came in just one shy of a brown ribbon, but got a fave from sweet pixelpig. Actually, most of my really low-scoring images have a fave or 3 attached to them, but this is the most recent. My lowest-ever (the infamous self-portrait as raindrop) actually has 13 faves...
Quite strange, the person who marked this as a favourite has only commented on one photo, this one. He has only marked one photo as a favourite, this one. He has never entered a challenge or voted.
As I don't have that many faves in any case, I am always surprised when I get one. I was very surprised to get 2 during the challenge for this middle of the road image. This is my lowest scoring fave.
This photo was sooooo misunderstood!! I got blasted for thinking a dog was a toy. Trust me, I am a responsible dog owner who was only playing on the fact that this was a "toy" breed dog. Funny me, I thought it was a cute play on words. I do not think dogs are toys. OK, so now that my disclaimer has been posted, here's the shot :-)
At a 3.65, this was a pretty low scoring entry, and got two faves.
No surprise that CharlieBaker was one of the two who faved it. I consider that a high compliment.
Yeah, Paul, I loved that atom bomb/mushroom shot! Actually surprised to see I hadn't favorite'd it b/c it is a memorable shot. And Karen, if 5.1 is your lowest shot in 178 challenges that's quite a feat!
This is my lowest scoring shot with a fave, though I believe it was low scoring b/c of DNMC rather than objective criteria (not that I think it's a brilliant shot or anything but not deserving of so many 1's). I have another low score DNMC shot but after that is my "truest" lowest score + Fave, and I gotta say I like the shot too.
I've only gotten 1 fav in a challenge, and that was my highest scoring...
But! I have received a fav in the current 100 year old challenge--and I never dreamed that that shot would ever get a fav! I thought it was a nice, but dull, shot.

I would really like to know what it is with DPCers and blown highlights. It's almost an automatic "OMG! BLOWN HIGHLIGHTS! BAD!!!" They never, with a few exceptions, even stop to consider that it was used on purpose for impact.
Alas, trying to teach them such things is fruitless too, I think. hehe.
Favorites are important. I often go thru my favorites, many of them represent the style I wish I had. My lowest scoring image got one fav, I like to think by someone with a great sense of humor. Out of 25 photos picked as a fav by someone, 9 of them were in a challenge.
My Second lowest scoring image. 4.8 I got 2 favourites.
My wife will kill me for bringging this up into the light again but I still think it's a decent image if not technically so good, at least on an artistic level
