Darn !!! don't worry too much about this (easier said than done..). I have gone through this myself so I know how it feels. Take it as a learning process. As I have mentioned to many others including myself , a great shot is a great shot !!!!! That is the achievement and you know from the score that many has acknowledged that fact.
This is a great shot, it is shuch a shame it got disqualified, still a winner nevertheless. Like you commented on my photo, apparently we were at the same place at the same time...I had tons of photos of the upper canyon but didnt want to use them, and used one of the lower instead. Good work.
Hey, Janine!! Super congrats on your third place win!! This is an excellent shot, you were definitely in the right place at the right time!! Very happy for you!!
far out janine .. how great to see you here on the front page with a ribbon .. you've just blasted it in with this image .. and what an amazing pb for you ..
CONGRATS ON THE YELLOW and a fantastic shot .. WOW .. !!..:)
Its not fair. There is a geology challenge, and you live near the canyons, while I live in Ontario canada... not exactly the geology capital of the world ;)
Great shot... I hope to visit your neck of the woods eventually.
