except yellerdude didn't "win." he tied with mir. again, i don't have a dog in this hunt, but aesthetically, i can't see why andrew's version is "worse" than mir's.

I never said he won. I said that yellerdude was recognized. Ahudsun was too, to a certain extent.

as he said, though. a distant third. i would at least judge that, aesthetically, his fold seems equivalent to mir's.

i would also say that anyone looking to win a popularity contest on this board has come to the wrong place. but that doesn't change the fact that is probably what happened to a certain degree.

Comparing mir's second entry and ahudson's entry, I have to say that ahudsons looks more than mir's like a test fold, which may be caused by be bad light conditions on the photo though....

I think a little difference in photo quality can be enough do make somebody, who has only one vote to cast and who has to select between some more or less equal entries, decide to vote for the better quality photo.
