Yes, I believe we are all in that boat. I am hoping this when mixed in with the talent in our group and the ultra wide variety of themes will all conspire to make me a better photographer. If nothing else it is fun and photography has always helped me to see the world and life in general in a better light.

/pun absolutely intended

This is how it’s worked out for me. The occasional highly voted picture is a bonus.

I just appreciate having a reason to shoot often.

Even when I am not shooting for a theme, I’m purposely bringing my camera to shoot whatever because at some point it might be a theme. I have zero problem archive diving for the majority of my pics. I know some people like to shoot for specific contests (and sometimes I’m aware of hoppered themes when shooting, so I kind of do, too) but I’m just as happy shooting everything and finding pix to fit the theme.

Rav, your shot is awesome.

I think the swirls were added to the concrete to provide grip, most likely by a trowel or float. Either way, it’s not something I’ve ever seen before in a parking garage.

Thanks, Pope. I have other frames–we may see that garage again!

I’m surprised there’s so much surprise over the swirls, actually. I thought it was an amazing shot for the lighting but didn’t even pay heed to the swirls – in SD and Los Angeles, it seemed every parking garage had those things. ::shrug::

Ah-yee! Congrats, Ranger Joe; it was a battle to the last day!

INBD I would hang your shot on a wall. It’s awesome. 🙂

Congrats to Ranger Joe/cameraflage on the sweep of individual and combined wins. The Weekly Reports post has been updated with the latest stats.

There were 3 unvotes this week but they happened shortly after the contest opened, so I doubt they were intentional or had any affect on final outcomes:
