    CT-Could've been better if the fish didn't look so phallic.
    zeppelin-You won't be able to recreate the nice pic of the pick wedged between strings again. Your photo feels too much like a follow up.
    2ndclasscitizne-would've been better had it been in nice focus,
    UCR-Eewww! Nasty hair!

    how some of these photos get as little or as many votes as they do mystifies me

    one day M_P, I'll setup a step-by-step guide on how to judge a photo. Then you would watch the voting turn around dramatically! but its not a photography forum, so you can expect that anyway i guess.

    indeed it is so annoying. i and cotterik and probably some others were shocked that this photo only got a few votes and that a much easier sunrise picture won.. to be honest, i just love this picture,and so does everyone i show it to...i was actually very surprised i lost back then...I have sold it to the local photographer. he has printed it and hung it in his shop window recently

    this is just one example of pictures that should have won, but of which the subject was not good enough

    Well, at least it's not a tie. For now, anyway. Who knows what will happen in the run-off.

    the resize ruined the effect. In the 6MP image the smirnoff bottle and the pony in a bottle is in really shape focus

    All down to personal opinion, Col.

    Don't forget that Charles Saatchi is currently making a mint out of his art exhibitions. We're talking about a man who views a cow's head nailed to the wall as art.
