A fun thread where we try to improve our pulses. Post your picture and its highest "Pulse" with the category and a link to the picture. You can only post again when you have a shot that beats the score of your previous image within the same category.

So, if you have a "Landscape" image at 83.3, you can post another image that is at 72.2 if its in a different category. However, your next landscape picture would have to beat 83.3...

This is purely just for fun...

Disclaimer, we are all aware that a high pulse does not mean a fantastic picture, this is not a competition with other members, but a competition with yourself that we can share with others. There are several things that will improve your pulse... the time of day its posted, the day that it's posted..A picture of a girl will always tend to score higher than a picture of a guy... Find out what it is that makes people V+F and comment on your image and use the information to beat your score...

On the contrary, it was to stop people like you moaning about threads and make one... I had a 93.2 for ages... and I the other day I beat it... I had been using it to inspire me to make better pictures. As I've said, the higher the pulse does not make a better picture, but you can use it as motivation... that's all, now stop being so negative and add some pictures you miserable sod :)

Nice picture by the way!... its really beautiful!
 
Willis, that image is stunning... Awesome work...

Also loving the Sunflower, beautiful shot..

I too spend hours on 500px... I have beat my initial highest pulse of 95.1... Which I'm pleased about and I use it to inspire me to shoot and improve my work.
 
@ James J :


Your right, half naked pretty girls get high scores..*

I want to refrain from going down that road, instead opting for beautiful light and composition.

I use 500px as a barometer only for fun, to motivate me to shoot and improve. It's Pulse of coarse doesn't reflect if the picture is good or not, but it's interesting to see how an image performs and to read feedback from members.. Even if that is back slapping.... That's often all you need to fuel the next shoot...*

There are images by the great Frank Doorhof that score low. Work by Lee Jefferies that have low pulse ratings, but the images they produce effortlessly and consistently are stunning...*

500px is my favourite site and phone app for viewing images, I use Flickr for forum posts only!!
