First off, TJ had nothing to do with the removal of your flower picture.

Secondly, one person can think the cow is white and another might not...since it is an off-hue, different viewers are going to have different interpretations. If someone thinks that it isn't white, that doesn't mean you should start a post or reply with another comment attacking that person.

Please, respect the members here. If you're not going to, I ask that you leave, because the disrepsect you've been showing TJ will not be tolerated.

I read a lot and don't necessarily respond. However, one huge thing with looking at others photographs is perception. One person may perceive a picture to be great - another will perceive it to be crap. It's all in the eye of the beholder.
If you're complaining because an individual gave you a low score then get over it - if they perceive that picture of lesser quality then you do so what? The next person might perceive it a totally different way.
You can either take the opinion to heart and throw a tantrum or listen, take the advice and work with it or even simply ignore it.

If you're going to react like a juvenile when somebody gives you a less then perfect score then from what I've seen, this isn't the site for you.

As I've told my teens a few times when they threaten to leave "don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you"

Dwight Truitt, I think you need to wash this cow, than it probably become of white color :lol:
It's the question of White Balance. We can photograph a paper using a lamp in the evening, and it'll be yellow on the shot due to the lighting, but when looking at this shot we know that this paper is white. It's our mind that knows, but not the eyes. So somebody estimates the photo with his eyes and somebody - with his mind. It's not an offense.

I totally agree with you!

I've also got some comments I wasn't agree with, but I really thanked those people, who spent their time, writing some opinion to my photos!
