Something I have noticed happening fairly often here on EDSI is someone posting an image of a target that just happens to be the Challenge target that month over in the BDSI forum. Happens almost every month; happened again today.

 

It's bound to happen. But you are welcome  posting your image and  some comments on your experience in getting it to where it is in the companion thread, usually pinned and  titled Techniques and Discussion.   You may not think you have much to offer, but just your example might be enough in itself. You might just help someone learn something new. You might even get a bunch of Like responses flowerred.gif

 

(You could enter in the Challenge itself too, since the winner is chosen by random number anyway, but your reward here lies in helping others.) 

 

I have learned a lot from many members who frequent this forum. Interestingly, the ones I think I have learned the most from are those who also show up offering advice or just an image over in BDSI--my thanks to all who do.  Experience is what you get when things don't go according to plan, so by that criterion I consider myself an experienced imager. lol.gif  My simple suggestion is to check over in the BDSI forum to see if a target you're working on corresponds to their Challenge target and at least check in on the discussion from time to time. Who knows--we can all learn something sometimes.
