[QUOTE="Mike D90, post: 330625, member: 17556"] That is my problem with the way the "assignment" is judged as to winner. Not everyone who posts a "like" knows the difference in a good photograph and a bad photograph. Just because someone, even a lot of people, likes a photo does not make it an award winner. I am not at all implying that the winners of this last assignment posted bad photos. I am just stating that I am not in agreement with the method of assigning a winner. The previous assignments, posted by Horoscope Fish and others, had specific guidelines as to what the photograph entries should contain, i.e; 2/3rds rule, leading lines etc. These are all areas that a photograph would be judged against in a real photography contest, not whether it was "liked" by the most people. My intentions for entering an assignment is to learn more about that particular discipline of photography. [/QUOTE]
