 I was fairly anxious to enter this shot of Cinderella's Castle from Disney World. One of very few entries that I really liked and the voters didn't. :-/

I dunno... something about 109th place just feels less than stellar. That big ol' 6 bar on the graph translates as, "Nice, but so what?"

Shannon - I doubt there are many photogs on DPC that could pull of this good of a score with a shot of Disneyworld. It is an excellent shot - perfectly composed and framed and lit so well. I really think the subject matter made the voters a bit too grumpy, saying..."really good image, but its Disney World! it must be voted down!"

My God that place looks hideous, is it Disneyland? Sky feels too artifical, looks like colours are as a result of PS. Shame there are no clouds, composition feels like it needs something extra in it to add some interest. Shot is too blurry.
