Post subject:  February Photo Comp ***CREEPY***

Apologies for the delay but I've been rather busy photographing a recent aircraft incident at Lossie and selling the pics to the press :D

The topic for this month is.... ***CREEPY***

Now the popularity of this premier competition has rather waned somewhat and I don't really blame you all as the circumstances of life have been dealing all of us a fairly hard blow recently - Christmas, no job, family trouble, no camera etc..... but let's all make the effort to go out and take a piccy - in February - in the rain/hail/snow - in daylight now that there's more of it. Eh? What do you say?

Thanks
:D


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 :roll:
* 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.
* You will not be able to vote for your own entry.

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 February until midnight on Monday 7th March.
* After voting has finished the winner chooses the next theme within a couple of days.

Good luck.

I've got an idea, but tried shooting it at home today and it's just not working at the moment - guess I need to borrow a tripod and light from work due to camera shake! Bugger!

Are we still finishing this months' comp tomorrow (we didn't get the subject til 13th Feb)? Any chance of a few more days, two weeks isn't much time for most people to fit this in to their busy schedules?

Maybe we should make this bi-monthly to get more entries?

I've got a macro shot of a spider on my PC. Someone beat me to it though. I really need to start making more effort with the comp.

I have a little collection of pencil sharpeners. Amongst other things I have a field gun and a canon, both of which fire projectiles. The canon is actually quite dangerous because it can propel sharpened pencils with quite a kick :shock:

As to the topic, following many of my recent posts it won't surprise that all I can think of is the creepers from Minecraft :oops:
