Hey DJS.,

We had to take his reframed photo as a valid entry into the contest. We do our very best to pick the weekly winners based on merit and we genuinely felt his photos were the top shots of the week. I understand what you’re saying and I apologise if there are any issues. Both his photos (original and reframed) will be included in the final draw to be voted on by the industry judges, as all other photos are.

Thanks for the response.

Gamblors photos are amazing and are always the top shots, and i look forward to seeing his stuff every week.
Its just that 2 exactly the same photos shouldnt get it twice.

So in saying that, I could just use the same picture every week just crop a little bit off it???

I see where you are coming from DJS.
Though in Gamblor’s defence I dont think he has just cropped a bit off the photo. It is totally reframed, and if you compare the two side-by-side, they are of the same scene but IMHO they are very different photos.

I see your point and I promise you we did have to think about it twice before posting. The problem was it was such an awesome photo, and it was a different version which was even better than the original in our opinion, so we had to pay it as a winner. I don’t think this will be happening often, if at all again. I hope you understand mate.

DJS I think you have a valid point. I will go back and take down the original version and just leave the ‘reframed’ version in the contest. Unfortunately that doesn’t really change the point of your objection though.

Nah dont take it down, I love them both.

As long as everyone get the point to my objection its all good.
Just pretend I didnt comment at all.
