V3M Photo Competition - Round 2 - Closing Date 27th Aug

Post by **jtbo** » 14 Aug 2006 05:50 pm

I just do copy paste and little edits from earlier round to maintain standard, hope it is ok.

Title:
Sports

Be creative... as long as your car and sports are involved... tis all good.

Everyone has imagination, this competition is here to get you exercising it. Winner of the comp will have the right to claim the title "Almighty Phototaking Dude", until time of the next round, when the title will have to be relenquished, and re fought.

Right, a few rules, which may or may not be good, but as we need something to start from, shall be used for this setup.

*Send pictures to jtbo@janiervast.com, I will host them then for voting round.

*One entry per person. I don't want to kill the creative juices, but having thousands of one person and only one other doesn't seem in the spirit. Basically, inform by pm by the closing date which one if you change your mind along the way.

*1024 x 768 max res, keep the forum vaguely in check for those still on dial up, anyone who wants a bigger version can always ask the photographer.

*No major photoshopping. I know MJ likes differing exposures for foreground and background, I'm tempted to say thats cool, as are smaller tonal stuff... magazine editors are allowed to airbrush. Basically... if you make you're car look like a rally scooby... or something similar, you're out!

*Remember, this is only a trial run really, so keep within the spirit I proposed the competition. Have fun, let everyone else be impressed. No getting anal, cos no one likes it (not that I can see how anyone could...!)

*Judging: This one is important.
After the closing date for entries, all submissions shall be posted in a thread, with attached poll. Poll will have a set run to date, and after the set date, the winner of the poll will be pronounced "Almighty Phototaking Dude". Everyone should vote their own photo.

You have until Midnight, 27th Aug

Admin, can I have a sticky please!

If you like to something edited, please tell, I used your post as base as it is good to be based one principle and not causing confusion by expressing things differently

No way, it's great... I just got confused with you posting something that had my style of writing

Now... Sport you say...

Haha.. yeah I thought Jani was suddenly speaking like our resident southerner

Sports...hmm....

Oh yes, I did not want to limit too much different ideas so it is sports and only your imagination gives boundaries for it actually, subject is really large, so that is why I put bit longer time line for this too

Actually if I could speak like Chris, I would not complain at all, but really can't speak English well, typing is also mediocre at best

I thought everyone in UK is taking part to this kind of sports

But really, don't need to stay too tight in sports, use your imagination, it does not need to be car used to sport or sport next to car, remember Brazilian football fans for example, also being bit crazy seems to help
