Vintage Choice category......

[vcode455]

Who would like to see a Vintage Choice category added here? Of the nearly 80 Screeners Choice images selected last year, a whopping 3 were pre-2000. It's like no one took a decent photo before 2000.......

Hi, I don't know a dedicated slot is necessary? Obviously giving awards like SC etc is subjective but there are three slots so plenty of space to award older work.

My following of art shows, photography shows, leads me to the believe the best way is to spread awards out among participants and different styles. Awards can serve many purposes, including encouraging variety and participation. Not doing that can lead to predictable results.

But that's just it, virtually no older shots ever get chosen (3 of 78 pre-2000 last year) and I can pretty much predict a SC before I even open up the file. Just my 2 cents......

Not my photo, I just processed for a friend but would think it could be worthy?

Yep. Terry has taken a lot of cool shots SC worthy IMHO. Doug L. and John D as well amongst others.
