Postby Big Red on Tue Dec 23, 2008 10:23 am

The aim is to pick 4 themes and everyone who wants to have a go at them can post up their 4 pics in the image section by midnight after the closing time and put a link from their thread into this thread.

Any DSLRusers Member who cares to can then vote for their favorite on the four themes and post up in this thread with any comments if they care to make them.

The Themes are:
Theme 1: ... Artificial light
Theme 2: ... Cake
Theme 3: ... Lane
Theme 4: ... Score !

Voting lasts for 48 hours then i will tally up the votes and post up here.
If you win ... you get nothing but praise.
If you cheat ... you get nothing but Karma.
You cannot vote for your own pics.

Rules:
Pic must be taken in the Challenge Period by the entrant.
Any PP is allowed as the voters will say what is too much
Pic 800 on longest side.

We will start it at 5PM Friday 26-12-08 and close it at 8AM Monday 29-12-08.
Pics to be entered by 12 midnight 29-12-08
voteing to be from 12 midnight 29-12-08 to 12 midnight 31-12-08

Don't forget ... its just for fun so even if you didn't get a fantastic pic for a theme ... post it up anyway

My votes
Theme 1: ... Artificial light
TonyT, but thats one bizarre light you have there Shane

Theme 2: ... Cake
Big Red. Tony, I agree with Shane. That's more a meal than a cake!

Theme 3: ... Lane
TonyT Shane. On close inspection, I know its not, but it reads more like a driveway than a lane.

Theme 4: ... Score !
Three very different interpretations of the theme, and none were the "obvious"
Big Red comes first (or perhaps his Dad :) )

Thanks for the impetus to take photos Shane
