Description

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.

catagory: Details and Macro

Nadya Johnson March 24, 2006

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! #2570583

Karen Engelbreth March 24, 2006

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!!! #2570586
