Alrighty folks, the scores were just released. How did you all do in this go around? Apparently there were 1900 entries this go, so it was a very competitive iteration of this competition.

First time submitting anything for anything, so I was pretty green with everything My printing quality I thought was fairly low to be honest. I printed them on an older inkjet on a very matte hannameulhe paper, and then mounted to masonite. Some apparent flaws but I sent them anyway, so hopefully next round will be better.

The lack of super over the top blacks in the images (where's the heavy vignetting?? Where's the horror movie lighting?) plus the lack of textures is what kept these all out of the higher 90's.

Evan, that first shot deserves a lot more than 83 for sure!

Great job guys!

Wow - Spencer, I think that bike shot is really awesome. But I'm pretty sure they'll never ask me to judge! I've been asked to shoot a shot like that for a couple having a 50th wedding anniversary.

Evan - awesome, awesome job. I LOVE your two photos -especially that second photo - I was so sure you would have 90+ Oh well. That's why I don't judge.

Congrats to you both!

Wait, Andy/Angie, as someone who's never WPPI'ed - when you say "I received 7" - does that mean 7 got in? Isn't it scored on top of that?
