* * * FEBRUARY PHOTO CONTEST: TIE-BREAKER ROUND * * *
Attention Re: February Photo Contest

There was a tie in the monthly photo contest preliminaries. As a result, there will be a brief tie-breaker poll between those pictures.
The photo that gets the most votes in this poll will proceed to the final round.

Please come over and vote. Poll can be found in the photog group here


nb. Cross posted to the Lounge.

1. I hate the photo contest!
It causes too much pain in my brain when I have to choose ONLY 1. It's just too darn hard and I always feel bad about the great pics that I don't get to vote for. It's like having to choose only one person to save from a fire. You never feel right about those you had to leave behind.

2. sweet sentiment
If you like more than one, you can always comment on them, and say, "I liked this AND that, and it was so hard to choose, but I selected THAT because..........."

Comments are always welcome and helpful.

The contest is supposed to be fun, not stressful. I'm pretty sure the photographers don't stress out about who wins or loses. It's like playing a sport or something. It's the process that's important, and what is learned, more than the result.

The contest just gives a little motivation. The competition is very friendly. People even do polls in the Photography Group to see which picture to enter. I am pretty sure people vote for the one considered best rather than the easiest one to beat, LOL.

It is considered a good contest if the results are close.

6. It is difficult to choose, isn't it?
There are so many good photographers on DU. It's hard to choose one over the other.
