You've got to be kidding me! I can't believe the score you received. This photo is outstanding and a remarkable capture. The composition is great and it has a total 'wow' factor.
I wonder after this blur challenge how it would do. Because I never really realized how cool and artistic blur makes photos look until I started participating in this challenge. Maybe Deb's right. Maybe after this, there will be a new appreciation for artistic masterpieces that are a little out of the dpc-friendly box!
Excellent! Maybe with a little patience and a lot of attention to the side project, shots like this won't be so woefully underappreciated in the future!
Doc, I can look at this & feel the energy coming out of the particpants. I am absolutly shocked by the placing you recieved for this composition. I would have placed this one much much higher in the rankings but you just never know what pleases DPCers at times.
Excuse me??? You put this in a folder called "My shame"???
Please move this photo immediately to the appropriate place!
This is NOT a shame!
It is a shame that people can not see what an amazing photo this is!
So dissapointing to see the results on the challenge and see this great image where it is.
At least 60% of the photos finished in higher places shouldn't be there at all for the "Not fit the challenge" reason.
Well, I guess we already learned what people really understand on the matter ;-)
This still is a wonderful picture and a personal favorite of mine.
I thank you for it so much!
Normally I'd vote really low for a shot with this much motion blur, but there's something about it, and little pieces everywhere that aren't blurred. It's actually really effective.
