As I stated yesterday, I will be posting resub images from February until the end of the month. Since these images will be a mish mash of unsuccessful entries, I've decided to title the series "LOSERPALOOZA"!

Thanks to everyone who offered words of encouragement on yesterday's post.

  Way Cool, Donald! Love this! Extremely creative, very whimsical, and a great shot! As for Winning vs. Losing? Always keep in mind that Stephen King's first novel was fished from the trash and ultimately, submitted by his wife; he had given up and was never going to write again because so many editors rejected his work. Frank Herbert ("Dune") had a similar experience. 29 publishers told him it was absolutely unacceptable. Lesson? "Keep on truckin'," as they used to say! Don't lose faith in your work, no matter what. This is a darned awesome image, Donald!

  Wonderful and very creative image, Donald!!!
Donald -I don't see pictures as unsuccessful just because they don't get in the final - personally I am far from always agreeing with the judges - thats just my opinion!!!

  This is my first time viewing your gallery and I must say that I'm very impressed! This image is so creative and well done. Love the sharp details on the feather. White's not easy to photograph and you've done superbly. Congratulations on all your wins!!!!
