Photo Competition 8
Congratulations to Katex on winning Comp 7.
Click here to enter/view Competition
Each competition will run for 2 weeks, 12 days for uploading photo's and a further 2 days which can be used for voting only
During the 12 days uploading time you will be able to vote and there will be an option to cancel your vote if you feel a better picture has been submitted.
After the 12 day upload period, voting only will be allowed for 2 days then voting will be stopped.
Anyone can vote, you don't have to enter the competition to be entitled to a vote but it is 1 vote per person
The winner will get to choose a theme for the next competition ( You won't need to do anything else, the moderators will create the folder to be uploaded too)
In the event of a tie the person who chose the theme will decide on the winner
4 entrys are allowed per person
Any more than this will be removed, your 1st 4 uploads will stay - later ones will be removed
All images must be your own work, scanned, digital, phone, video stills are all allowed, please dont use images off the web or from mags as we dont want Accyweb getting into trouble for hosting copyright images. You will retain copyright of all your images.
Photo's altered with image editing software will be allowed
Theme chosen by Katex - photo 7 comp winner is
BLOT ON THE LANDSCAPE
.................................................. ..................................................
We now have some small prizes to be awarded, we won't be giving one away for every competition so what we will do is:-
Give 1 away for every 6 competitions, this will mean a prize will be given approx every 12 week.
I will put he 6 winning images into a thread with a poll on so people can vote for the one they like, it will run for 5 days then the poll will close, Mick is holding the prizes and will contact the winner with details of how they can collect it.
I will not be able to enter as I run the comp neither will any of the Accy moderators, this doesn't stop us entering the fortnightly comp - it just means if we happened to win one our entry wouldn't go into the prize draw, we would in that case enter the runner up from the week we won.
Prize you could win by entering this competition is a Mini tripod
Attachment 6299
.................................................. ..................................................
Closing date for this competition is 24:00 on the 12th of July and voting will be allowed up to 22:00 on the 14th of July
For those who are not too sure about how to upload their pics
1. Click Here
2. Select the latest competition
3. Press the "upload photos" button (top right of page)
4. Make sure latest competition is in the drop down list
5. Press the "Browse" button and select your image
6. Enter a title and description if required
7. Press "Upoad/submit" near the bottom of the page
Good luck

Re: Photo Competition 8
Hope this is Ok and your judgement of a photograph is not clouded by the issue over a piece of architecture or gargoyle, etc.
Have had some beautiful photographs in the competitions and thought could turn to the flip side of ugly .. however, some photographs of what you consider ugly can be artistic and beautiful in their own way, don't you think ?

Oh yes, Margaret, just what I had in mind, even though the subjects are not pleasant sites, does make interesting photography, doesn't it ? More to talk about with these.
Thanks for understanding what I meant, big responsibility this winning.

Re: Photo Competition 8
Yes....and you did very well...tried to give you some Karma to celebrate, but I have to 'spread it around' a bit before I can give you some more.

Great subject Kate.
Off to root in the box under the bed again and see what I can scan.

Re: Photo Competition 8
Come on you lot. We can't disappoint Kate by not entering anything into her competition.
When I get myself motivated, probably tomorrow, I'm planning on walking up a couple of hundred steps, in the Tenerife heat, to photograph what I think is a 'blot'!
Hopefully, I will survive!
