What does Discouraging Comments means?

0 upvotes

For instance, if someone went to a specific image they didn't like and posted a comment on it expressing their feelings in an aggressive or immature fashion.

I think there is a typo error in the additional rules...
Instead of "Submissions must be shot before 12 pm ." - should be
"... before 12 AM . "

0 upvotes

Nope, no typos. 12 pm marks the end of morning time. 12 am marks the beginning.

It's been pointed out that some photos that were submitted and DQ'd due to incorrect times were simply taken through time zones and not corrected accordingly. Because of this, i'll allow the submissions that were in question to be resubmitted.

Perhaps in the future, when submitting, perhaps check to make sure that the time taken is correct before submitting a photo, if the challenges calls for a certain rule regarding time.

My camera is set for CANADA (time) and I was in INDIA and there is 11 hours difference or so, this is why you think it was taken in the evening, but I took it in the morning

cgravel,
The camera cannot be blamed for having incorrect times/dates settings. That is the responsibility of the fellow holding the camera. How is the camera expected to know whether it is daylight saving time, or it has travelled through time zones within a continent or to a different continent entirely!! Adding the information manually does not meet the requirement for these types of challenges where capture dates, or times of day are critical. The embedded EXIF is what counts here.

No,this is not correct.The Exif data incorporates all informations including date,time as per country's standard time,not GMT in the camera .It is the task given on each Host to calculate as such.The photographer has no role to play here unless he intentionally deletes Exif data.

You dropped me a line that my picture was disqualified, allegedly because you didn't find the time when the picture was taken
Well, I put in _all_ data - incl. the time it was taken.
...

Funny challenge, isn't it?

0 upvotes

At a glance your submission featured a date and time submitted, a date it was taken, and some other general camera info, but no time that it was taken at. Upon further inspection, however, the photo shows 0 EXIF data imbedded whatsoever.

You disqualified my picture "Sunrise on the Ganges" saying it had been taken at night. The sun RISE on the Ganges when you take it from the Ghats in Varanasi, it does not SET. So this picture was taken probably around 6:30 in the morning, not at night. You should not disqualify it. Please let me know that you put it back... I tried to answer directly back to your comment, but the site will not accept my answer.

0 upvotes

Mr.Host does not know how to calculate & adjust local time with GMT for morning shot but has got one qualification -how to disqualify a morning shot.

1 upvote

I hope he will get it...

Yes.Provided you know what you mean.
