Each time I sit down at the computer I look at some of my files and find a picture that I like. Then I look at what I have already submitted to the contest and debate rather to delete one that I had already picked and replace it. Any one else as fickle as I am? Confused

Wow, a goodie just came up on random plants. I'll need to look for it.

I've been guilty of and fickle too, not that I think I have a chance when I remember all the super cool banners I've seen on this site! But it's fun to dream and participate... Smiling

I'm also guilty of deleting and then submitting another one, Paul.

I haven't changed any yet, although there are a few that I would like too. But I just haven't found anything to replace them with. I just checked my "Flower Pictures" folder on the hard drive and have over 17,000 pictures. I'm sure that over 90% of them are not even worthy of being posted in a photo contest (and probably should be deleted Hilarious! ), so finding that gem to replace what I have posted will be a challenge.

I'm kind of feeling like Bev. I don't have any hopes of winning anything due to the fact that there are so many great photographers on this site. Despite feeling like I won't win anything, I am really excited for the voting to start so we can see all the pictures that were entered. This is just so much fun! I have seen some gorgeous photos on ATP and they inspire me to try to improve my own. I still have a lot to learn.

My Canon S5 IS is pooping out on me (getting lens errors), but still works. I have had my eye on the Canon T3i for a long time (love the vari angle LCD display and the way it feels in my hands). My dh was standing with me at Best Buy in the camera department and he gave me the push to take the plunge and go ahead and get it. Maybe next year I will have some awesome pictures to enter!

The part I enjoy most is seeing how others photograph their plants and the plants themselves. They open new worlds to us.

I can hardly wait to see the pictures too. Although I love it all, seeing all the gardens, flowers and plants is my very favorite thing on ATP! Yes, I changed a couple too. Hilarious!
