Congratulations to everyone who didn’t make it in and commiserations to those who made it to the voting. ;) :upside-down-face:

If we didn't make it in, does that mean the photos were worse than the worst photos?!

That could be a badge in itself, "Not good enough to be bad" :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Not such a fan of the idea this month, doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.
Me neither and I cringed looking at many of the shots, however there was a lot of discussions against quality pictures and high end cameras or phones used in some shots, add to that the focus on subject vs photo quality so this month potm was to gauge the effect of not abiding by technical perfection.
At the same time the topic opened up the space for some creativity vs photographic excellence and some members went in that direction which was good to see. It'll get mire interesting next month when we compare the shots to the opposite of this month topic ;)

Personally I enjoyed it. There were some shots that were just bad shots period. But I think there were a few creative shots. I approached it as kind of like photography impressionism lol
