Hi everyone,
About this photo : https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/10135347
As you see it got a Screener's Choice, and as you see, some people felt the need to post comments about it not being SC worthy...
Obviously those guys need some explanation about a Screener's Choice. Actually, the name sums it pretty well. It's a Choice made by a Screener (and confirmed by a 2nd one) - There's no given standards other than the "WOW" factor for the screeners involved.
That's a rare, unique way where screeners have a real liberty to promote a photo directly.
When we get that "WOW" factor it's really like a very nice reward after screening hundreds and hundreds of common photos.
So yeah, not everyone gets a "WOW" factor on the same photos, I often ask the crew to select more SCs, but unfortunately those negative comments have the exact opposite effect as Screeners involved might be more shy to give SC in the future...
So... if you feel "my shot should have gotten a SC" or "this picture doesn't deserve a SC", sorry but it's not how we meant that reward; I hope you understand it better now.
That Piper photo is just great. Its composition is spot-on, you get a great feeling of Spring... A lot of poetry there, sorry for you if you don't get the magic ...
And finally, on a personal note, we all live in times where what we surely don't need is more negativity. Feel happy for the ones how got a reward, give likes and positive comments...
Stay safe
Alex
