That great photo about the window with reflexion in it, where has it gone?
I expected it as the winner of this challenge.
I hope we are going to see it in the Windows and the Blue Skies challenge.

ConanFuji, was it the inspiration for that challenge?

To bad, have a nice picture loved on another site. I'm quite new here, so the chance that I did win something is not very big.
Here in Belgium, they call it discrimination.

Isn't a "blue sky" part of the theme?

0 upvotes

yes it is... i have dq-ed an entry with bricks in the shadows...like a silhoutte. do you think blown skies should be dq-ed? I'm already in the hate-list of dozens of folks here for killing their entries... Do you want me to be the most hated in dpreview.com? ;-)

LOL!...
I know what you mean, Conan. But also, there are lots of critics in the "Challenge Forum" about hosts who are not following their own rules!... I don't wish to name anyone, but as you are regulary reading that forum, you know what I mean!
Therefore, entries like:
http://www.dpreview.com/challenges/Entry.aspx?ID=663754&View=NewFirst&Rows=4
or
http://www.dpreview.com/challenges/Entry.aspx?ID=663469&View=NewFirst&Rows=4
may represent some problems for some since there is no blue sky in any of those shots! ;)

Good luck, my friend,

Hi ConanFuji,
A sample entry will greatly help to understand much better what this challenge is about. A verbal description will do as well.
