I really don't know, or it has been done before in the past, but
the start of a New Year is nice moment to choose a
"Caedes Photo of the Year 2008" I think !
Which one do you like the most?. the one with the (highest marks)of the C-Index ?,or is it one of your own images ?
I'm very curious about the results!, and I hope that, in a let's say a month time, we all know who has shoot the most honorable image
I make a start with this one:

Thank you for supplying this list of beauty for us to enjoy.

I would like to suggest that there are others deserving of recognition in catagories that oft times don't get the recognition that photography does.

I would offer this and this for your perusal, among many, many other worthwhile posts.

Thanks, Caedes, I'm very impressed by these lists of caedes
top photographers, and their images!
But still we don't have the "Caedes Photo of the year 2008" !
Mabey it's up to you, to make a voting system ?... ( suggestion : vote on one image of these two lists ! ? )

Ok so you want photo of the year 2008, what about fractal of the year, illustrator of the year, Graphic of the year and the top award best wallpaper of the year? there are awesome artists who don't do photography who should also get an award

I have interpreted "Photo of the Year 2008" to mean "Image of the Year 2008". My mind never excluded fractals or illustrations or graphics.
I would think that others on this thread 'think' the same way? No?

**edit..out of the 2nd list that *caedes compiled, 9 out of 20 images fall into one of the categories that you mentioned. That is just shy of 50%!! Amazing array of work demonstrated by all the fine artists on the site.
Way to go everybody!! :=)

I saw yours and good choices too.

Mimi i'm sure thats what you meant "Image of the year" but you know what SOME on here are like they wouldn't even think twice about any other kind of art because "they don't understand it!" ;)

@ bitchfromhell666
I agree !
My suggestion: Start a new topic !

You'r right, I don't understand fractals, and I don't like (most) of them !

So what your saying John.. is that you don't think that the other artist should be included? yes? no? do you think that is fair? that just because you don't understand it you don't like it? fair enough you don't understand it thats your preference, but isn't there even 1 piece that has caught your eye? it takes a lot of patience and time to create some of these pieces, i'm not just talking about fractals i'm talking about all computer generated work and the illustrators.. these artists don't have a scene in front of them to take a pic of MOST of the artists start from a blank "canvas" (yes there are some who don't do that) and turn it into colour and imagination.. I'm not saying that photography is easy, I do both so yes I know whats involved.. I just think that if your going to have "photo of the year" ALL mediums should be involved after all it is a wallpaper site.

and why should BFH666 have to start a new topic? or is this just exclusively for the photography section?

The second list of caedes is a 'welrounded group', and I suggested (in my comment above) to make a choice out of this list too !(including fractals!)...One vote, Two lists !

I too appreciate the list and think it's a wonderful idea. Thank you, and I'm really honored to see one of mine made it. I would never have thought I would have made such a list when I first started on here. I have learned so much. Thank You, for this wonderful site. =^..^= sandi ♪

Very impressive indeed! Thank you, Caedes, for providing both lists. I think that a selection for *wallpaper of the year* would be a great idea! But, if this is not possible, I'd like to take this time to congratulate all photographers and artists for a wonderful year of art, and look forward to seeing the results of the next!

jaybe.....I do not believe that there has been any decision made yet as to whether any type of voting will even take place.
This is simply a discussion.
If that event would occur, the *Praetor Maximus, aka *caedes would set forth the guidelines :=)
Hope this helps!

I don't wish there to be a vote. I like it when there are lots of top photos. Picking just 'one' would be near impossible.
