Pro Photos
In order for a photo to be designated with the "pro" status one of two things must happen:
- A photo must have a rating of or higher than 4 after 50 votes.
- An administrator can promote the photo.
Rating Photos
The Star Rating system is provided, along with the commenting system, as a way for members to both give and receive constructive criticism, advice on making better photographs, and to voice opinions about the photographs. All members are urged to give both star ratings and comments to any and all photographs, but especially those that evoke some kind of emotional response. It is only through this interaction can members give and receive the communication needed for any thriving community.
Below is the accepted definitions of each rating star: (Please keep these definitions in mind when you rate a photo)
1 Star - Generally poor, needs major work.
2 Stars - Technically okay, needs work.
3 Stars - Overall a good image.
4 Stars - Good technicals, exposure, composition. Very nice.
5 Stars - Excellent on all counts. A great photograph.
Photo Awards
Photos that maintain a rating a 4 stars or 5 stars are given a Photo Award. However, you can lose that rating if enough people rate your photo less than a 4 or 5 and the overall average dips below that threshold. A photo award can increase from a 4 star award to a 5 star by receiving higher ratings from other members.
Only registered members can award star ratings to photos submitted.
4 Star Award - Maintaining a 4-star average. A Good Photograph Overall
5 Star Award - Excellent! A Great Photograph On All Levels.

Oakland Cemetary
Uploaded on: September 3, 2008
The oldest cemetary in Shreveport, LA. I personally love wondering around graveyards taking pictures. To me they are very beautiful.

I do like the idea here and the overall comp is good. I feel like you conveyed what you were trying to show us. However i see you shot it on program mode( i know point & shoots are limited) so the camera didn’t do such a great job with your settings. Your aperture here is f/2.8 which is far to large to capture all of the detail and get the depth of field that would bring everything into sharp focus. Because your aperture was so large you have a shutter speed of 1/400 which would have given you plenty of room to slow the shutter speed and stop down your aperture to between f8-f16. I think that will help you get the kind of detail that would make this shot really pop. :)

For some reason I adore this photo. The way you framed this leads me right into the cemetery more than any photo I’ve seen in a very long time. I almost get sucked right in, truly an amazing feat to accomplish. The muted colors are fantastic as well, a lot of post work must have gone into this.
Even though its Program mode I’m awarding this 4 stars, but if I were to base this on how well this photo was executed, and had it been a manual shot, this would have been only the 2nd photo I would have awarded 5 stars. I’d love to have a large print of this in my studio, that’s how much I like it.
