The "Too Much of a Good Thing: Photo Contest Dilemma" refers to a common problem in photo contests where there are too many high-quality submissions and it becomes difficult for judges to choose a winner.
This is a problem because it can be overwhelming for judges to review and compare a large number of excellent photos. It can also lead to a longer and more complex judging process, which may delay announcing the winner and cause frustration for participants.
One solution is to have a pre-selection process where a smaller group of judges narrows down the submissions to a manageable number for the final judging. Another solution is to have multiple rounds of judging where the top submissions from each round move on to the next round.
Organizers can set a limit on the number of submissions allowed per participant, which can help control the total number of entries. They can also clearly define the judging criteria and communicate them to participants to ensure that only high-quality submissions are accepted.
Participants can focus on submitting unique and creative photos that stand out from the rest. They can also carefully review the judging criteria and make sure their photos meet all the requirements. Additionally, they can engage with the contest community and promote their submissions to gain more exposure and support from voters or judges.
