The guy gets six views and wins the contest.  I didn't even like the photo. 
I did kinda like this one tho,  not for photographic reasons mind you,

The judging happens offline and so the number of views has nothing to do 
with it.

If you are not impressed with the standard of entries, perhaps you 
should enter next time.

Cheers,

Wayne

Hi Wayne!

The Lensbaby is a stupid name for a stupid, gimmicky product.  I do,
however, salute the person or company that makes money off of it:
There is a sucker born every minute, as it has been said, and they
deserve to be had.

I am neither impressed with the standard of the entries (I think they
all suck), nor the pathetic hawking of this useless product.

I am having my period (a heavy flow day) so forgive me if I am unduly
polite.

Ya know, those pics of Tuscany with the clump of trees in a field are 
clichοΏ½, but, all the same, that's a kick ass picture.  To me, the only thing 
perfect about it are the clouds, the rest could use just a touch more 
exposure.  Or maybe not.  I'd have to see to be sure...  ;-)

Or volunteer to serve as a judge. The second-guessers could find out first
hand how easy it isn't.  ;^)

I liked that one along with his other shot, both of Richard Cooke's, Elmo 
the Chihuahua, and mine, of course.
