2-19-14 – The Camera Made Me Do It 2

Looking forward to this one, have a couple sitting in the wings already. 🙂

Needed a break today, so I stole a few minutes away and dove for some quick entries. This is one of those “slippery” themes where you find yourself second-guessing whether or not a shot meets the spirit of the theme (or at least I did, anyway).

I know the feeling CISS. Means I came up with more than a couple ‘B sides’ along the way as I scanned through the collection… oh… and of course now I’m thinking of those other shots I meant to consider… drat!

Love some of these, but it’s hard telling how the votes will swing, so I can neither affirm nor rebuke your second-guessing.

Thanks Els! And to repeat what I posted in the Fark thread, congrats to ‘Cuda on your three-peat! That’s actually a pretty rare feat:

• U-Man had a four-peat starting with contest #232 and 3 three-peats starting with contests #258, 344, and 351
• Elsinore had a three-peat starting with contest #399
• And now Barracuda has a three-peat starting with contest #457.

160 click-throughs, and three votes. We’ve got a lot of lurkers and voyeurs at fark, apparently.

Good point.
