this is antimethod's winning image in "proportions" challenge.. it got DQed because of violating basic edittin rules.. but here it is for everyone to appreciate..
check out his portfolio he is a great photographer and have some very striking images..
Please note that antimethod brought the editing error to the attention of the DPC committee.
Just another thing I like about this site, the integrity of the members.
i did the exact same thing with my submission image that i was gonna submit to "rusted" challenge.. but i realized it was basic editting and even though i really liked the effect i decided to submit it without the editting.. man have i gone integrated:) but i think it is better this way...
Filters, spot-editing, etc. This was a Basic Rules challenges, and it was edited as if for the Advanced Rules.
Although the photographer "turned himself in," I notice it wasn't until after the voting was over, so I guess the SC will be spared additional flagellation for not DQing it on a more "timely" basis ...
i was just looking at his profile and noticed that his average score didn't go away with the dq. i know the site recalculates at a set time, but was wondering if dq's miss the recalculation.
I just found this thread now... it really means a lot. It's amazing to be a part of a community that shares a passion for both photography and competition, and functions on courtesy, without ever shaking a hand. If only strangers did this more often in reality. Thanks again for the support, even through my confusion as a new member.
