I gave this a four. I am stunned that this has 2,2.

I'm not stunned, Jan. I removed my entries after seeing this happening to several shots I think were totally pro. There's no point in submitting entries when there is a trolling crowd who find it appropriate to vote like this. Jakisa, great shot. I'm giving it a good score too.

I feel the same way, there are very average photos that have way more votes than this one for instance, 3 for me. there a of smudge around the wheel and perhaps a touch more tone would have made it feel less 'digital". Love it though.

I could be wrong but I see some dodging and burning, with heavy burning, or am I just a dummy? Top left wall, small middle wall, water line at bottom right corner of pool?

If I'm wrong, I apologize. Thats my reasoning for 3 stars instead of 4.

Yeah there's definitely trolling going on in this CTC! (why, at the very least would you NOT give this image a 3?!?!) I caught myself admiring this image for quite a while. My eye wanders to multiple parts - 4 stars from me.

I actually really like this image. Not sure what people who are giving it a 2 are thinking... It really does a great job capturing the feel of the space.

I blame the rating system. 2 is supposed to mean an image "needs some work" before being put in a portfolio so technically if anything could be improved (cropping, raising/lowering shadows, etc.) it should be given a 2 - even if those are really easy tweaks to make.

this is really beautiful! That view alone would make me want to buy this property! I would maybe punch up the contrast ever so slightly to make it look a bit less flat. The lights in the pool are a bit blown out too but love the 2 point perspective and seeing the horizon line.
