I would like to post this comment on a picture that is in my humble opinion as sharp and clear as any Ive seen posted!, yet as many others I submitted it went to the temp files, I think someone ought to get a new job, and quit sending these pictures to the temp files, the only thing not in focus is the tree, and it was supposed to be. Maybe some can tell me why this picture never got posted?

Hi Jim,
Focus is not the only thing in life When we judge a picture we also look at exposure, composition, amount of noise and many other aspects.
In this particular case the completely overexposed background without any information was enough reason for us to place your picture in the temporary map.
Btw none of us need new jobs because we don't do this for a living, but because we enjoy it (most of the time)
Cheers,
Jaap
