TWP Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 (edited) Dear All Ah some of my most favorite things water, wheels, wildlife, wine, and women. Those will be the themes for this photo contest. Also, autumn is my favorite season (hint). For people wanting to participate here are the guidelines. Two pictures must be submitted from the given themes, but both cannot be of the same theme. Photos must be dated later than today. Pictures that are submitted with the date layered will be rejected. The contest shall last until October 14th and winners will be chosen the following week. There are two prizes, first place will be $200 dollar gift certificate and second place will be a $75 dollar gift certificate. Grading Scale: Pictures will be graded for the characteristics that make a photo good. Composition, creativity, subject matter, lighting, etc..Also please submit a short summary with both of the pictures. All photos must naturally have watches in them. The Judges: Bazz, By-tor, Jiro, Pugwash, and myself. Please thank them for their participation. Thank you. Good luck everyone! Please post your photos Here Cheers TWP Edited October 1, 2007 by TWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viennawatch Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 This sounds interesting, I will be interested to see pictures taken for this. I shall not participate though, because I for some reason never had an interest in cameras... :/ Good luck to you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section8 Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Can wildlife include my dogs? Too bad my dad sold his E-Type, otherwise I'd be heading down there right now to start shooting some pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWP Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 (edited) I suppose that would depend on the type of dog. Huskie perhaps, poodle of course not. Cheers TWP Edited September 30, 2007 by TWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 What about those who have cameras that don't add a date stamp to their pictures? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pix Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 You usually can read all pictures datas in the Exif information. That might help too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UB7 Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 (edited) Do you want watches in the photos?? And do you want just photos, no photoshop manipulation? Edited September 30, 2007 by UB7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corgi Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I still don't understand the "date" idea... all of my pictures are digital and have no date on them. I can use a program to inject them with a date, however. Do you mean the photos must be done with a conventional picture camera that is not digital? Because that is the only way I can see it making sense... Sorry about the confusion my friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 I talked to Ola. We will try. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Photos must be dated later than today. Pictures that are submitted with the date layered will be rejected. Will we allow EXIF data for dating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWP Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Do you want watches in the photos?? And do you want just photos, no photoshop manipulation? I thought that being a watch forum mainly that this would go with saying. Sorry.,all pictures must have watches in them. Cheers TWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWP Posted September 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Will we allow EXIF data for dating? Thank you Pugs your photo lingo is far better than mine Cheers TWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UB7 Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 And how bout photoshop? No manipulation or can we use PS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 And how bout photoshop? No manipulation or can we use PS? define manipulation ... Are you talking colour balance, noise reduction, dust removal or are you talking taking three photos and making a montage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pix Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 I think that as some "manipulations" can't be noticed, it's useless to forbid them. Personally, I would say that the result is more important than the way it was realized. Aren't most pictures we see around Photoshopped ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section8 Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 So we can only submit two pictures? And only one photo of any given theme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWP Posted October 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 So we can only submit two pictures? And only one photo of any given theme? That is correct my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I would say that the result is more important than the way it was realized. Aren't most pictures we see around Photoshopped ? this is an interesting point. are most of the pictures we see on here really photoshopped? i'd be curious to see who's are and who's aren't.... i'm not much a photographer, but none of my pictures are photoshopped (i've actually never used photoshop).... deltatahoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
