About *Music To My Eyes*-(Post 1 - Award 5) Comment Sweeper is running

We've all heard the saying "Music to my Ears". If you've ever seen a photo that struck emotions inside of you the way a beautiful piece of music could - you have
witnessed something that is "Music to your Eyes". There are thousands of incredible images on Flickr... hopefully this will be a place that you can post/find some of those wonderful images that 'strike a chord' with you. There's no particular theme for the exact kind of photos that you need to post here, so be as creative as you want to be :-) You can only post 1 a day so give us your best.
Music To My Eyes has certainly become a large and wonderful group. Cudos go out to all the members (especially those that consistently follow the rules...you and we know who you are) and to the dedicated Administrators and Moderators. Recently, we reached 200,000 photos in this group...WOW.

GROUP RULES
Translations: [Italiano (Italian)] [ελληνική (Greek)] [الْعَرَبيّة (Arabic)] [Español (Spanish)] [小組規則 中文 (Chinese)] [Français (French)] [Română (Romanian)] [ Galego (Galician)] [Catal (Catalan)]
1. No nudes/images with sexual content (and nothing that even comes close to it) please. This includes images that are sensual and provocative in nature (things that make you go hmmm).
The entire photo will be taken into consideration when determining if this is sexually provocative or not. This means the image, the intent of the photo, the tags and the general types of comments you are knowingly illiciting. Therefore, if the photo is of a person (male or female) or an object that on it’s own would not necessarily be outside of the rules; but the tags put on the photo were provocative or sexually suggestive, the typical comments were provocative or sexually suggestive and/or the intent of the photo is sexually suggestive; the photo most definitely will be removed.
If the photo being submitted would NOT appear in the TEEN VOGUE magazine, then it should NOT be submitted to the group pool.
Shots other than model shots that would not normally appear in TEEN VOGUE or even House and Home that can be seen as sexually provocative will also not be allowed.
Each photo will be judged by the guidelines above and if the photo falls outside of these guidelines, it will be removed. If you are not sure if the photo meets these guidelines..then it probably doesn't.
It would also be suggested/preferable that photos of nude babies and children not be posted. The reason for this last suggestion is due to the prevalence of pedophiles on photo sharing forums. We would hate to see images of innocent children ending up in the hands of these type of people.
No violent images; this includes violence to people or animals or the depiction of violence of any sort. "Hate group", racist, discriminatory or disturbing photos will also not be tolerated.
We are a Family Friendly Group (Rated G). Admins have the right to remove any image that they feel falls under this rule. Also, please refrain from using offensive language.
2. Directly after you post, you must give out five (5) *Music To My Eyes* awards to five (5) photos within the group's pool. Three (3) of the awards that you give MUST be handed out within pages 1-5 (the most recent 150 photos). The other two (2) awards can be given out wherever you wish.
There is no rule on faving... that is up to you. Feel free to give out more than five awards if you have the time (that always makes the Artists happy).
3. You can post 1 photo a day in the pool. Please DO NOT REPOST photos that have already received an award. If your photo gets to page 10 and has not received an award you can remove it from the pool and repost it if you wish. :-)
4. Do not give more than one award to the same photo.
5. Do not give an award to your own photo.
6. If your photo receives 10 or more 'Music To My Eyes' awards please post it to 'The Forte Gallery' and you will receive an official invite to Artists of the Year (Invite Only) - (Post 1- Award 3). We always try to make sure that everyone has a fair chance at getting 10 awards, so please do your part.
REPEATED OFFENSES OF BREAKING THESE RULES CAN RESULT IN REMOVAL OR BANNING FROM THE GROUP
