I don't suppose this will come as a surprise to you but this month's topic is ***SWEET***

The Rules:

* PM me your submissions.
* ONE photo per user, however you may CHANGE your submitted photo at any time up to the due date by sending me a PM.
* There is no maximum or minimum image size, we are not here to discriminate against hardware.
* Only very light editing is allowed. Adjustment of Levels, Colour Correction, Contrast, Sharpening and Cropping is allowed.
* This thread will be closed at the specified time (end of the month). No extra entries will be accepted, except under special circumstances.
* Entries breaking these rules will not be entered.
* The forum policy must be followed.
* If you wish to remain anonymous even after voting has finished, then please let me know when you are submitting your image.
* Ensure you enclose a title and please make sure whatever host you use I can download the pic.

The Process:

* Please keep the image size to less than 1.5Mb
* Go out and take a photo, fitting in the theme and rules.
* Post your entry to me by PM, I will host it and post it.
* When the due date passes, the entries thread will be closed, and a voting thread created to determine the favourite.

The Tips:

* Think laterally, not literally. Makes for an interesting piece.
* Try to make everyone think about what they're looking at.
* Do what YOU think is right. Art is very subjective. What's great to you, sucks to someone else, etc.
* Title your work, it will make your choices more obvious
* This is nothing serious, have fun while you're doing it.

Voting:

* Voting occurs for one week from midnight on the last day of November until midnight on Tuesday 7th December 2010.

Good luck.

Is this yours?

Seriously, no entries for this comp yet? (8+0

I'm diabetic, so I'm finding it somewhat tricky to come with inspiration

I can confirm a grand total of zero pm's and the same number of e-mail entries as of today (9:30pm). However, my entry is in the camera (in electronic format) awaiting a change in status from 'can't be arsed' to 'bloody hell, it's almost midnight on the 30th November' whereupon frantic processing (within the rules) will take place. This is normally the time I pray ImageShack is not playing silly buggers........

Wow. I'm both shocked and surprised.
Mine is also in the camera, but I have exhibited it elsewhere, so certain folks here will know it when they see it.

Mark

I have something but I would like to improve on it if time and conditions allow.

I got nuthin.

No inspiration at all. Zilch. Zip. Nil. Nowt. Nada.

I had a week of "CBA yet", but I still have nothing after giving it some thought.

I have an idea however i live in fear of putting it in to action at work, fear of complete ridicule.

Yup. That's me, too.

I've become far too lazy to enter the comp (kind off, I spend most of my 'camera time' taking photos of Emily for a project I'm doing) but I've got a bit of free time this weekend so I might find some inspiration.

Is Emily not sweet?

Al

Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Got ya

I've actually got a picture in mind too, took it the other day. Won't be a winner or anything (not clever enough) but I like it

I have bought a new camera (a Sony SLT-A33 since you ask) but it has provided no extra inspiration.

Sugar & Spice and Sweets For My Sweet have just been submitted.

Yay - we have a comp....

Al

I'm getting a General Squirrel error message when i try to PM onemac, so i can't enter my photo for the time being

:edit: seems to work now.
