We have a new subject for this month and it is....... ***SET***

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 September until midnight on Monday 7th November.
* After voting has finished the winner chooses the next theme within a couple of days.
* Once the new theme has been chosen entries may be submitted at any time up to midnight on the last day of the month.

Good luck

Al

Interesting choice - lots of options there.

I have a couple of ideas in mind.

My first thought was concrete. Close enough? :D

Well, I can think of a cracking set, but I don't think the photo would be allowed sadly. I'd need a wide-angle lens too...
:lol:

I have an idea. Camera needs to be sent off for repair though. Do I delay the repair to do the photo or hope I get it back in time? hmmmm.

Send it off and use a Lomo.

You can always scan the photo and send it in. ;) :P

Set is officially the word in the dictionary with the most different meanings.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
