      No... besides picking it up every morning i out.....
      It's a local free daily paper.......

      Just surprised at the.... blandness (?) of the shots they choose....

        Yours seem to be more polished ... even the street ones. Theirs list has a broader range, and it included more street-like street photography.

        Raises an interesting question for me: with 12,000 entries (did I get that right), how do you choose?

          Stepho, most people don't realize photography is an art, therefore it is subjective--What is beautiful or amazing to one is not to the other. Perhaps the chooser didn't really see all your work or realize how wonderful it is. I hope you get published next time and good luck to you.

            Thanks guys.... altho... i didnt mean to whine about not being included, as much as i just saw so little that was eye-catching, or interesting, or skillful in the Top 100 they did choose out of the couple dozn thousand.....

            But, in the end, Abe- ur right...matter of subjectivity.....

            But- u know- with the repeatedly bland choices they DID make... i also cant just buy that wholly.....

            and i swear it has nada to do with not being chosen... I figured i'd b able to be blown away by te finalists....-with THAT many entries... ah well.....
