have you eat peyote?
just to have new sl visions....

I always thought you drank peyote, but I guess it can be dried and eaten too. This one I'd had in mind a while, so I figured I'd try 2 takes on it. Hard to tell what the good ones are sometimes in the tiny window.

you're right Socks!!!!

I usually go on the "photojournalist" method of photo taking. Take a LOT of pics, and then when you get home get the best ones. Sometimes you get better pics that way. Hard to do on a postcard contest tho, at least without flooding koinup with bad pics to find that ONE good one.

yes, Socks maybe you're right......

probably it was better if I had called the contest in a different way

as Instant Postcard Contest.....or suggesting the idea, that: it was a sort of ability contest, get the eyes on the postcards....

beside some appreciaments for this competition, we have received also some complaint....we are hearing and thinking on how to improve it.....for the next time

My main "complaint" was that the contest did not say postcards were mandatory. If it said that, then I would have done shots like this one sooner. Postcards are the only real way to guarantee that a shot isn't manipulated with a 3rd party program, yes. But sometimes when I'm looking for a good shot I'll rapid-fire them to my hard drive to sort later. I have one pic I took using onrez only that's absolutely stunning, but since my prefs weren't set to postcards it was lost for this contest. As soon as I can, I'll upload it to here.

In any case, this is a great shot :-D

Love this shot Socks! and I do the same you were describing, take dozens of pics and then choose. I did the same with the windlight contest though and then remove the ones that were bad. And I admit, I did flood koinup with many horrible ones hehe but ... one has to find the room for maneuver in life :-) and in koinup as well so ... flood and remove was my motto.
