I donate 300 fg.

Probably the best theme that's been suggested so far.

I choose the next theme to be: Unusual perspective. To take a picture from a different point of view, vantage point, outlook, angle, aspect or context then you would normally see it. I find this theme will allow the photographer to be creative and will allow everyone to participate as you can take a shot from just about anywhere.

I will throw in 1500 for the pot for contest #5 Unusual perspective. I think this theme will be fun and should produce some interesting results. John will make the contest thread today or tomorrow.

Unusual perspective doesn't need to be taken so literally either, an image can imply an unusual perspective in a person, amongst other things.

I agree, but alot of members don't feel that way once they see the photos when voting.

I actually have the perfect shot on top of my head. Just need to experiment and see how it turns out.

I thought I explained it well above but I will make it clear before we start. The contest is about the photographer making the unusual perspective, so the photographer has to make something normal look unusual by the way it is taken or set up. It is not about talking pictures of an unusual perspective, the photographer must create the unusual perspective. I hope this clears up the theme.

I dont know why you guys pick themes that are so hard to execute. This is why everyone ends up blah blahing about how no one got the theme right.
