Not necessarily, but in a pinch, I called on Schmoo and Angelo to help. Notice seastack was in there too

We have had Shay and at least one mod judge in many, many rounds. If you would like more explanation, I'd be happy to offer it, but I'm guessing all is cool, yes?


More importantly, our LPS gallery has grown by yet another 10 photos. What a seriously impressive gallery!!!

well no offense to anyone who wants to be annoyed, but I struggled this round to find a top 10. I didn't feel it hit artsy enough but when I looked through what the judges picked, I was

great round and congrats to all
