Interesting that the top 10 place getters all had one vote @ 0.5 stars. Really? Somebody voted 0.5 stars for images that ended up in the top ten? Wow. In fact, all of the photos received a 0.5 star vote, except one. Hmm.

Question for the host: the contest rule was "red, green, and/or blue color". Does this mean that the photo should have at least one of the 3 (e.g. a bird with only red and no green or blue is okay), or that it must have red with blue and/or green (i.e. R-B, R-G or R-G-B)? So at least two of RGB, or at least one?

Asking so that we can be fair in voting.
