Title: Photograph of the month - MAY 06 - GET VOTING!!!
Post by: Badabing on April 28, 2006, 16:35:26 PM
Once the thread has been started peoples entries have to be posted in that thread. Each entrant is only allowed ONE POST in the thread to cover ONE IMAGE that he has entered.

Deadline for all entries will be the 28th of the month that it starts on, leaving a few days then for Voting to take place and the winner to be declared.

I suggest that the winner picks the next theme by the 1st of the next month, so 2 days of voting start on the 28th... winner declared on the 30th May... by the 1st of June the winner will post another thread following the format as mentioned above, replacing the THEME with his/her chosen theme.

Those are the rules for entry - C&Pd from M3TAHEADs post..

Entry is now open for MAY 06.

Deadline Midnight of May 28th.

Post your entries below.

Well have the theme of Landscapes/outdoor shots.*

*unless there is a specific objection.

Good luck.

P.S. Each winner will go into a gallery, which ill host... so weve got a decent collection of pictures, if thats ok with everyone?

Dating data will be needed too so be careful to preserve this if possible. exif is data that is inserted into photographs by digital cameras

If your picture is regarded as too big it may be edited to just a link by a Moderator, there is no upper limit on picture size.

As today is the first of May the competition is now open, remember that previously taken photies are illegible for entry. If you take another photie that you prefer then I suppose you might edit your post. This means that if you posting an early pic wont penalise you. Last posted photo is the one that will be entered.

Anyone know how to edit exif data BTW? :evil:

Just let people edit as much as they like and take them on trust they did take it that month.  It doesnt really matter does it?  just a bit of fun :)


Wot he said.


Data should be intact on the linked photo.

Going to give my vote to Alien8...  sorry to everyone else.. but that ones got a lot of atmosphere somehow (quite literally, you could say! :lol: ) it looks miserable and grey, yet somehow a nice place to be....  peacefull and quiet. Could do with some of that :D

Is it too late to ask to put a larger sized image of mine up... as I had no idea the limits were not 1024x768. Was presuming serious was gonna do some culling in here. :D lol.

Actually not wanting to put a larger version up but can I linky in the fullsized version :) has been on my website since I took the picture,will provide a link to the directory listing to show too.

If not fair enough :D

Forgot to ask... are we going to have points with regards to votes? so 5 votes = 5 points. The winner being the one with the most votes :) That way we can get a decent leaderboard going after the first week.

Im stuck between jaimzs and Alien8s. Alien8 is definately the better composition, but Jaimzs capture is amazing considering it was done on not even a proper camera, but a phone camera.

Id vote for myself but thats lame :P lol.

So er...ah.. heck.

My vote goes to Alien8 for brilliant composition particularly love the water!, but Jaimz deserves an honourable mention in my opinion :)
