That shot was way up there on my list of loved-its; a worthy 1st place, NBD

I’m partial to the first pickup, and the second-to-last Dart.

A-yep.

Wow. Them’s some big-arsed moths! Beautiful color to them–not what I think of here in Az when I think ‘moth’. Very nice detail in the shots of the little frondy antennae!

[ravnostic]

I was wondering when these would pop up. Have I thanked you for the wonderful work you’ve done on this?

[ravnostic]

I dunno; earlier I had the ruling that Meteor Crater in Az wouldn’t qualify for this contest (or I’d be using it), so I’d tend to say ‘no’. But it’s Orionid’s call.

I just bought the same cheap tripod from Wal-Mart that I bought 4 years ago. Still in economy mode, I guess–but I have tripod porn stashed in my hard drive that I fantasize about all the time. 😀

[ravnostic]

what is it about NYC that even the ground is gassy?)

Pretty sure it has to do with either politicians, or Wall Street. 😛

I actually feel pretty good about this one. Despite the fact that I’m only using one from my trip to Colorado (I did, after all, get about 800 pics before the camera died), I had zero difficulty in picking my shots. Whether they will get the votes or not I don’t know (nor do I care–I like them, anyway.) I have no b’s. It was almost a no-brainer this time; I knew going in which ones I’d use. And that’s highly unusual for me.

But besides that, welcome to the forum! I enjoyed your glass creations during the Scanner as Camera theme.

Oh yes, this. I thought your glass bead/shard scans were quite creative and well done.

Ditto this. I loved those.

[ravnostic]

Perfect for “Nice Basket!”.

//just sayin’.

Add a poinsettia, and you have this year’s Christmas card!

[ravnostic]

It’s a stunning shot. Best of luck in the job hunt. (my company, Microchip, is still hiring–temp to perm–if you happen to be in the Phx or Gresham, OR area).

[*]I’ve meticulously cleaned the data. There were several instances of reposts (Scarlet R’s) and posting more than 3 voting-enabled entries that weren’t caught in the original contests. I’ve marked these entries as “stats ineligible.” They’ll still show up in the Contestant and Total Votes sorted pages, but their votes don’t count, they’ll be grayed out and marked with “DQ” (disqualified) and they aren’t factored into either the contest results, contest statistics, or user statistics.[/list]

I noted, though, that the ‘elements’ allowed for the 4 entries? (At least it did on the cumulative votes view).

[ravnostic]

Doh! My mind is a sieve; a lot slips through. Yours is more like a hepa filter, lol. I’ll await someone’s opening a thread on the subject and some other’s input on the matter before weighing in again. –my bad–

[ravnostic]

Very spiffy!

[ravnostic]

I’m just starting my ‘weekend’, having picked up an OT shift last night to help refund my bank account of the fundage for the xTi I bought to replace the one that broken’d. Today or tomorrow, I WILL find that damned wallet with the casino $$ in it, or I will determine it really isn’t here; if the latter is the case, I will get drunk and depressed. 🙁
