I don't have an answer but I love photography as a hobby and don't think of it as a competitive endeavor. Reminds me of my best friend and fishing buddy of years ago in that he wanted to make fishing competitive which I thought strange.

I belonged to a camera club. We had monthly competitions that we all learned from scoring by 3 qualified judges. After some judges would share their reason for scoring.

I dont really want it to be competitive , but like viewbug, if you join, you can enter contest to win great prices, like lenses, cameras, our photo on a news magazine, gift cards, upgrades, and more, those things I like, but if you dont win, you dont , no biggy. I havent wont a big prize, but I have won, photo of the month, and upgrades, best photo rated by the staff, and stars towards upgrades, so things like that make it fun.

Best image....
According to whom?
Someone who dislikes landscapes?
Someone who likes landscapes?
Someone who has a PhD in Art?
Someone who's been taking pictures for 20 years?
Someone who owns a photography business?
Someone who read a lot of books on photography?
Or popular vote...
Should a photographer shoot what he likes, for himself,
or what other people like, for them.

And, as usual, the snapshot of a cute puppy wins.
