Nathan, I guess you'll have to get that one or two shots that WOWS Pentax.
i do not try for WOW photos when i shoot i do try for story telling photos and ones i can re sell and make $$$$ with LOL if i do get a WOW photo well it is just a + for the day
i do NOT submit photos to the Pentax ( i did 1x BEFORE i read that it was set up the way it was and would NOT have if i read how it works first) gallery page 1. it takes too long to get any thing voted on 2. a WOW photoj photo will get beat by an OK kitten photo every time the way they have it set up
i much rather submit photos to things that have a panal of photographers that specialize in the photos and category's that get put up ie..... photoj work gets looked over and juged by photojs land scape photos get juged by land scape. photographers ect. each tipe of photography has its own rules and chanlges
for example in photoj one duse not chuse the time or place to shoot for the most part and have to give up some tecncal photo for the story that has to be told. also there CAN not be any PSing of the photo ect. heck HDR is a no go right now and is conciterd a munplated photo. where a land scape photographer can pick the time and place and can use PS so a panal CAN more acurtly juge photos then the public at large they would know the rules that the photographers would have to fallow ect.
