In a submission of 10 cars, mine didn't make it and I was the 2nd to submit?

There were twelve photos submitted, the top nine photos were chosen for the final found. Nine photos to choose from is already too many as it is!

I understand that, but who decides what's "tops"? My car, and a car behind a tree weren't in the "top" I suppose. Basically the photo I submitted isn't 81.8% likeable by "someone". It would be better if there were a top 3 only. But that's quite silly to have 11 submissions and take 9, and tell a guy yours and the other one behind a tree were not good. In this case, they all should be considered.

Nate, perhaps in future contests you accept only the first 10 photos submitted, and use those regardless of "quality". Let the votes decide from there. Anyone who misses the first 10 is just SOL until the following month. It could help eliminate a level of arbitrary decisions.

ok i have to add my two cents...
if the CORVETTE has nothing to do with the contest why does the rules state you must "OWN" the corvette?

I would be more than happy to provide the reasoning of why your photo was not chosen for the final round. Just let me know, thanks.

Oh, I gotta hear this...please provide feedback as to why mine wasn't chosen to move forward when it was the second photo submitted. Is the driveway too cracked? Bushes not trimmed? Not sunny enough?

Seems simple to me...it's the OP's thread (Nate). If you don't like the way it is run - then don't post/participate. I think that it is interesting - making photo quality part of the qualifying criteria. Having said that - IMHO - adding too much Photoshop type enhancements sometimes does detract from the "raw" beauty of the photo itself.
Just my .02. |
