No, but seriously, that is a great point. How many great or even okay pictures do you see not through the viewfinder? I know I see way too many that way. I am working on correcting that. It ain't easy. zen, if you get pushed, I am not sure there is disk space on Flickr for it!

Asheville as a photo subject doesn't have a time of day when it's at its best - there's always something brewing. It is a city after all, and i like how DITLO pushes me. And you're right about reminding me the rest of the year that i could use some pushing and to FIND shots when i'm convinced it's not a good time to shoot. I enjoy that energy too because it feels collaborative much more than competitive. Sure we all want shots that capture 'it' whatever 'it' is, but knowing that others are out there making photos is an energizer to what i'm doing.
