Having looked at the standard of photos in these contests I have to say that we have some very talented people on this forum.
I have one slight gripe though which this months winners bring to the fore, and that is Digital over SLR.
I doubt very much that any Digital camera would have gotten any images remotely close to those that came in the first three. This is not a gripe but a fact.
I must admit that I have only entered photos twice due to that fact. I have tried to pick catergories where we might have a level chance of competing with DSLR. i.e a solitary bird, but on this occasion a solitary bird also entailed flight shots, which I hadn't thought of.
I would have thought that DSLR would nearly always win hands down against Digital in the hands of a competent person so where does this leave the Digital photographer in relation to having a chance of winning these monthly competitions.
I haven't studdied the competitions too hard because, to be honest, my skills are not really up to it. I'm just wondering on behalf of most of the Digital Photographers within the forum.
I wouldn't mind seeing all your points of view on this whether you be Digital or DSLR users.
