The photo of the Half Dome is in my sample pictures on my HP computer that runs Windows Vista.
How odd?

Oh, for crying out loud. I just voted for the DERN THING!

I think I'll "lower" my vote to a "9/10," I reckon!

Now, I'm beginning to wonder if his "blurry spotted owl" photo is also a crummy submission.

Hmmm ...

Do not be seduced by eye candy on SP.

This picture should be removed from Photo of the Day status and whatever came in second place should be elevated to first.

Yes I do have photographic memory.

What's the big deal? Recently, the POTW was a picture by a non-member, yet plenty of people got good and wet over it. At least the poster acknowledged it, though it still says little for the idea of SP members supporting and encouraging other SP members.

So why not vote this one up for POTW? It certainly fits the photo club's mentality.

As a teacher, one would think you would be able to see the parallels between this and plagiarism in the classroom. If someone submits work that is not their own they should say so.

This latest guy is probably mocking all of us! He didn't say it was someone else's pic.

I was being sarcastic, making a statement about the photo-voting culture on this site.
