Sue explore is alway rotating photographs in and out of explore, that way they get many more then 500 in the top 500 for the day so you might only have 4 out of 11 photos in at the moment. To make sure you can see all of them select include dropped.

Dez, you have 25 pictures in Explore and they are very good. :)
No one is trying to be negative here .. just trying to state an opinion on the quality of some photos making it into Explore. Please read the thread carefully before making such assumptions.

Thanks for the info and explore checking link, James.

I did re-read your original comment carefully and in your opinion, it doesn't look like "some" photos but rather "most" images on Explore are not good photography examples.

Being on Explore is overrated. It is a popularity contest and not about good photography imho. Post a pic using a specialized lens, a controversial subject, a cute dog/cat, etc. and chances are you will make it into Explore. I find very few images on Explore that I consider fine examples of photography.

I'm not obsessed with Explore but I wouldn't want to put other members down for posting their explored images.

Mind boggling that this reached #53 must be loads of people doing midterms and can empathize. I used film expired in 1977 taken with a 1953 Kodak camera. It was done for a project called who could have guessed "the old film project"

I haven't checked this Explore feature in a long time! 118 shots of mine are currently in there...mostly music photos. I'll just link since it's easier: http://bighugelabs.com/scout.php?username=28226466@N00

Take it with a grain of salt, though...I've had photos go from #2 and #3 for a day to completely out of the list. That's messed up.
