    Thank you! I am honored, never been picked first before, and would never have hoped in such a tough round.
    I notice mostly the sinners are the winners, how ironic. :)

    You deserve it! The sinners rule because, as I count it, some 2/3 of the entries were on the sin side. I believe what made yours so good, besides the technical merit of the photo, was that it was a mix if the two, the sinner being virtuous in asking forgiveness in prayer.. Titled differently, this could also display the virtue of total faith, someone praying when no one else is bothering...

    Actually, what amazed me from down under, was the fact that most entries went so religious for virtue - since there are so many facets of human-ness involved with sin and virtue - it was almost like humans can have little virtue

    how amazing!!!

    we as beasts have our moments, but we're not all that bad really!!!!

    I am truly grateful, and amazed...

    I entered just to enter one, thought I would get more serious as they went on. I only expected to beat the ones that were disqualified for some reason.

    Heather, yes, that means that you were 18th out of 54. Basically, if a judge scored someone in 1st, they got 10 points, if they thought you were 10th, you'd get 1 point. In your case, you were either in 7th (4 points) on 1 judges list while not ranked on the other two's, 9th on the lists of two judges while unranked on the third, or 8th/10th/unranked,....

    Oddly, you could have ranked exactly 11th on all three judges' lists, and gotten no points, so don't put your ego on the line based on the points there. Look at the comments that will eventually come out for all of the entries to understand how to improve.. Nice entry, but the way....
