Thanks Zach

Actually when I took this photo.... I only did one try... took the camera in... downloaded it.... adjusted the curves/saturation a little in PS.
And sent it in.

I was stuck with #5 or #11. The dof control in #5 got my vote in the end. Well done.

I was the one person to vote for Number 2. This one, in my eyes, was a great example of "imperfect". So many interpretations of "imperfect", this one matched mine the closest. I view nature as the closets thing to perfect and the accident or or whatever that caused the imperfection in the subject was perfect. However, I am not a fan of selective coloring I think it would have been better in full color.

LittleMan: Please no offence intended. Your photo is the best if left without the "Imperfect" title. Sorry if you already stated it but, what is imperfect about it?

what is imperfect about it?

There is a marble missing out of the line... I'm a perfectionist.... so It Buggs me to death.... maybe it's just me.... but I thought that dipected it the best.

Ah Yes! very good! I was so impressed with the photo itself I missed that. Makes more sense now. It does depict imperfection. Not it's not just you because the majority went with your photo. I didn't even submit one, since I could not overcome the question in my head of; "what is perfection?". What is perfect to me, might not come close to perfect for you. I toiled with this question so much I couldn't even take a shot. Congrats! Well deserved!

Yeah, I see what you mean.... Perfect for me is.... well... PERFECT
lol
It was really hard coming up with something to take a picture of... But I saw a pile of marbles and I grabbed them and went outside..(not knowing what I was going to do) and set them down... I thought the shadow with the reflection on the ground was really cool.... so I lined them up.... took one away.... and took a picture...
