Rules:
Basic edits in a art package of your choice to include:
Sharpness/ soften
Brightness/ contrast
Cropping
minor cloning to remove dust and unwanted elements (must be very minor)
No filters or any external graphic elements on picture
Any borders are permitted, also Frames
Your entry must come from a single photograph. You may not post-process your entry from or to include elements of multiple images, multiple exposures, clip art, computer-rendered images, or elements from other photographs, and other similar items.
Nudity is an acceptable form of art. Photographs may not, however, show a ***** or a ****** or any acts of sex. Nudity should be presented in a tasteful manner.
Cloning, dodging, and/or burning to remove imperfections and minor distracting elements is permitted, however using tools to duplicate, create, or move major elements of your photograph is not. You are encouraged to list all of the post-shot editing tools that you used when submitting a photograph.
Any modification done inside a digital camera itself is considered acceptable for challenge submission.
All entries must included the following:-
A) Location picture is taken.
B) Camera settings if able.
D) Camera Make and model.
Anyone found entering other peoples pictures (i.e. pictures found on the Internet) will be disqualified and perhaps banned from future challenges. Depending on the severity of the offence and/or our mood at the time.
Entries are accepted from anything or anyone with the ability to take a photograph.
Remember no prizes are available as this is for fun and learning but there will be buckets of kudos and patting on the back for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place entrants.
Details on how to enter your picture will be provided when the challenge begins. One entry per person please, any subsequent entries from the same person will be deleted. Please keep the longest side of your images at 800px, it makes life alot easier for people to view and judge photos when there isn't a scrollbar in the equation.
The URL to view all entered photos will be made available when judging commences. Voting will be facilitated by 'Liking' the Photo. Lets try to keep this as honest as possible.
Details have yet to be finalised for the challenges. The time frame for entries is likely to be the 1st to the 15th/20th of the month and judging will take place from the 16th/21st to the end of the month. This is subject to change however.
Any ideas or comments/questions please PM me and i will review
Go forth and take pictures....good luck
As always, watch this space for any future updates & changes.
