Ahem. Ladies and Gentleman, i would like to welcome you to our 8th Photography contest!! This month's theme is chosen by a legendary member known for his creative 365 portraits before i was even around. (but i've seen the thread). Our winner "insert name here" (Bountiehunter).


This eighth contest will run from June 9th to July 8th

Now the usual rules.

Here is how it's going to work, submission will be sent to Onepagememory via private message, he will then forward the PMs to me at the contest deadline. I will personally strip the EXIF data and send them to AlPi via email after the contest ends to post on his site to prevent further compression lost. Once that is done, i will make a new thread discussion thread with link to the voting event organized by Zex, and link to the photos hosted by Alpi.

Contest Theme:Spheres. (Not circles).




Prize-
300fg Donated by me.

We're splitting the pot between three winners in 60:30:10 ratios.

• 1st Place- TBP

• 3rd Place- TBP
• ***For any reason that we get a tied between first, second, or third. The tieing position pots will be combined and split into two equal prizes.

Total pot currently:TBP

Rules-

• Picture must be taken by YOU.
• Picture must be taken within the contest time frame.
• Only ONE submission per contest.
• EXIF data MUST be intact with date/time the shot was taken along with other technical details (Focal length, Aperature, shutter speed etc).
• Please resize image to long edge of 1024 pixels and 1024 only! Not 600, not 800 but 1024!.

*Please keep post-processing to a minimal, it's a contest for photography, not image editing.

Also, I'm pretty sure Zex is okay to mediate this contest too so if you wanna contribute to the pot, leave a note here and send him the fg



**Reminder!! READ THIS AGAIN- Please read all the rules and make sure the picture is in the correct size and EXIF data is intact!! I will NOT PM you guys to get a correct image, if it doesn't fit the rules, i won't post the image period. It is YOUR responsibility to make sure it's right.

IF YOU'RE LINKING YOUR IMAGE FROM FLICKR, ALSO LINK ME THE EXIF INFO PAGE SO I CAN GET THE INFORMATION. AND PLEASE DO NOT TAKE DOWN THE IMAGE FROM FLICKR. DEAD LINKS = NO SUBMISSION TO ME.

Just for some clarification..

Spheres. Not circles?

This?


Not that.


Correct? Or are circles allowed?

Was he really?

Damn i got baited.



LOL. Big enough pic, yeah... it's got to be 3 dimensional.

Spheres :S

Meanwhile, people are struggling to even meet even the simplest requirments in these contests

Lol! This will be interesting. Soon enough you'll have a photo of a ball hockey game with the ball being the smallest object, meaning sphere!

I'm joking. This one seems fun

Guys, think 3d circle!

That's a fried egg bro

Spheres people!

LOL, There isn't many ways you can interpret spheres.



Oh damn. We might have a "I SPY" game on our hands with these submissions then.




Preggo?
