Recent rejects; was trying for the more "emotional" type of shot but guess I need to work harder!

How the hell did those not get in?! Both are worthy of a place in the gallery. Especially the second one. Has PPG gone totally mad?

DanLoc78 · 08-19-2009, 12:50 PM

Agreed, Jeff I like both of those a lot.

Here are a couple of my most recent rejects. I have a couple in the queue right now...they'll probably end up in here in a couple days or weeks

Dan & Jim,

Thanks for the comments.

I really like #3 with the muted colors of the ocean!

DanLoc78 · 08-19-2009, 01:15 PM

Jeff, tell me IMGP2527 in your flickr page is in the PPG!

MacGirl · 08-19-2009, 01:28 PM

Joining the club also, as my first two tries are both "declined." Any critique is appreciated!

Thanks.

Hey, I know that place (last picture)! I believe it's up in the smokey mountains (cades cove area). I have one similar

Some of you mentioned that certain photos were declined by users/participants like the rest of us while certain other photos were declined by the Pentax judges.

Just how do you know who declined those photos because I don't remember seeing anything other than, "Ready for Review" and then either "Approved in Gallery" or "Declined" for each photo submitted.

Is it based on how long a photo remains in "Ready for Review" that gives away who may have declined it?

Thanks.

DanLoc78 · 08-20-2009, 07:07 AM

I'm starting to suspect that's the case EsBee. I just had several that were decline within days of submitting. I didn't think they were THAT bad!

Some have been sitting in the queue for a month now. I'm waiting for them to be declined as well, but maybe they made it through the initial voting process? not sure.

One of my most recent rejections.

dsport · 08-24-2009, 06:30 AM
