Thanks to everyone who participated in the first four "chapters" of the TDMMC Photo Contest. I'm kind of disappointed in the steady decline in participation. Three entries in the last one hardly makes it worth anyone's time. I HOPE to see 10+ entries for this one. Even if you've never sent one in before, go take a picture and send it in.
For the record...
Here are the rules:1.) Each participant has 2 weeks to hit the road, plan, and execute their entry for the contest.
2.) Entries will be emailed to me. Please limit your photo to a reasonable 800x600 resolution. I don't need 10MP photos and I don't wanna have to spend my time resizing.
3.) Photoshopping is allowed, but please refrain from making this a photoshop contest. No composites or major manipulations (panoramics, selective color, etc).
4.) Photos should be newly taken, not unearthed from the depths of your hard drive.
5.) Photos will be posted on these forums and voted on by members of the congregation.
6.) All entries deemed "not safe for work" will be disqualified, so no porn or nudity please.
7.) The contest is very dependent upon the honor system, and the prizes aren't good enough for you to compromise your honor. Please do the right thing.
The participants are:Anyone in the universe
The Judges will be:All of the TDMMC Faithful readers.
The fourth category will be:
Fall
It is that time of year when the leaves start changing colors and some beautiful landscapes can be seen across the country. Show us your beautiful landscapes.
Remember, the object here is to grab your camera and go out and take new pictures! So get out there and start shooting.
The deadline for Chapter 5 entries will be November 2nd, at which time all entries will be posted (anonymously, by me) for voting by the judges and Chapter 6 will be posted.
Please email your entries to
photos@thedolphinsmakemecry.com. DO NOT POST ENTRIES IN THIS THREAD! In your email, please include your photo, your TDMMC screen name, what the subject is, what camera (and lens, if applicable) you used for the shot, and your settings, if possible.
HAPPY SHOOTING!
