I find the judging much harder than the entering.

Entering is quick and easy--grab some of my favorites from the last year, figure out which categories they should be in, upload them, and done.

Judging is a long, grueling process--choose a category, look at picture, picture, picture, choose a favorite, back to the picture, picture (50-300 times), then narrow down the favorites to only a few, prioritize, submit, back to the categories to start over, for every category. Takes me days to do, but I try to get to all of the categories (even the bugs and pets, which don't interest me much)!

There are so many great photographers here, and it's cool that so many people are out taking pictures through the year, for whatever reason.

This isn't a contest photo, but I thought we needed more photos in the photo thread.
