everyone in reference to the group of people I was saying didn't focus on the actual concept of the topic. I'm not really even sure if mine does but I thought it was pretty specific and mundane enough to submit. I'm not trying to step on anyones toes here... just saying I think the OP had something very specific in mind for the theme and not really sure too many people hit it on the nose is all. obviously the theme is up for interpretation.
FWIW, the photos submitted are all excellent in some respect, I've noticed a big jump up in photo quality from our first few contests for sure.
