"they're the just the things that you have to seek out and would otherwise miss"
In case anyone missed it, the idea behind my red cars photo was that the man's head "echoed" the cars.
two cars
So if you missed that, it was "all in the detail".
Yeah, I know it's naff to "explain" your own photo....
It was noted.

Paul - you don't seem to vote hardly ever. As far as I can recall.

Needs to take more photos

I'm another who is guilty of entering but not voting, for the same reason -- it takes a while to look at over 100 pictures!
What do people think of changing the competition rules to only allowing two entries per person? This forces us to be more self-selective, so hopefully fewer in the competition without any loss of standards.

hiccup said:Oops, I completely forgot to vote. Sorry about that. Had a bit of a hectic weekend. Congratulations Elliot. Your shot would've definitely been in my top three.
And I'm in joint 6th! Rare company indeed
What an admission - even the image host doesn't vote. My voteless giddy aunt.

It'd be funny if I hadn't voted, but sadly I did
I like having three entries each to be honest, simply for variety and that you really can't predict what people will prefer. I don't buy that it's that difficult to vote; you have three days dedicated to it and you can pick your favourites as they come in. If you have time to take part, you have time to look through a few pretty pictures.
This month has been unusual in that there've been so many entries. That's sort of what I intended when I set the theme, and sort of a bit past even that - I certainly won't complain though!

My kneejerk reaction is to deny that. But looking at the winners gallery, you're probably right.

I always thought that was the etiquete, if you enter your obliged to vote.
On the subject of 3 or 2 I say keep 3 it is better fro variety and different approaches.
I know it can tak a long time to look at 100 photos and to be honest sometimes i made a judgement based on the the thumbnail, perhaps a bit harsh, but the only way to look at them all.
Plus I did notice that some pictures were huge files, which must have been painful for anybody on a slow connection. The Browser scales them down anyway so is it necessary to put up the full size photo? Not that I mind being on broadband.

i did wonder about reducing entries but i think 3 is about right, anyway this month was probably an anomoly.
i do agree that huge pictures annoy me and i dont bother to open them because they take ages and you dont get a sense of the image if you can only see the top left hand corner.
i think it would be a shame if someone who didnt take the time to vote won (thats not aimed at anybody)

so it's agreed...if people don't Vote I can abuse them for a month?
