Re: TheBigDog’s Second Hypography Scavenger Hunt

I was under the impression that we were supposed to nominate one pic for each category (ie 3 total).

Re: TheBigDog’s Second Hypography Scavenger Hunt

Nope, you can nominate as many as five in each category.

I am beginning with your beer picture as most interesting, but I have not posted my nominations yet.

Those who have not nominated photos yet may want to take advantage of TheBigDog's compassion, or busy spell.

And a note for Turtle:
While I certainly appreciate the nomination of my fireworks photo (#25), it was submitted in July and is not eligible for election at this time.

To be honest, I'm personally bored with the competitions. I'm being harsh, obviously, but it's just no fun voting in a competition where only 3 or 4 people participated. No offense intended to the participants who do contribute, just that some further effort should be taken to make the events more engaging and get a more robust participation from membership.


Keepin' it real, dog.

Well, I'm sure the competition is much more exciting to those that participate.

We are voting on photos, not people. The 96 submitted photos for this particular challenge should be judged on their own merits.

None taken here.

We're all ears.
