|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board New Clip Contest Category Gary Cosby, Jr, Photographer Decatur | AL | USA | Posted: 4:17 PM on 03.17.10 ->> I was just judging the Sports Feature section of the monthly contest, something I always enjoy doing, and as usual found myself wishing there were a separate category for portraits. There are always excellent portraits in this category but judging portraits against emotion or other sports features is the old conundrum of judging apples versus oranges; they are both good but they are not the same. If enough of y'all feel the same way perhaps we can begin the old reliable petition drive for the powers that be. Anyway, food for thought especially if you like both apples and oranges.  This post is:  Informative (6) | Funny (0) | Huh?

HDR and composite portraits are NOT sports features.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh? (0) | Off Topic (0) | Inappropriate (0) |   Definitions Add your comments...
