Presenting: The First Official 3SGTO Photo Contest!

[Macky]

The Theme for this contest is : "Beginning"


Rules:

Contest themes are abstract and limited to one or two words, or a short phrase at the longest. Any interpretation of the theme that falls within the rules is welcome. Please follow all NSFW posting rules.

You must be the person that took the photo. Previous photos are acceptable as long as you are the one that captured the image.

One submission per contest.

Image submissions will be open for one week from the time the contest is announced.

Images should be at least 640 pixels wide or tall. Links to larger images are allowed but you must have one that is at least 640px for the poll.

A member of the mod staff will create a poll for voting on the images after the submission deadline. The poll will remain open for four days (subject to change).

You must submit a title with your photos. This is just to make creating the poll easier.

Normal image processing such as sharpening/brightness/contrast/color adjustment and enhancement is expected. "Chopping" such as adding, removing, or reshaping objects is discouraged. You must provide an unedited "as-shot" version of your image if challenged on "chopping."

You can host your own images or host them from the gallery.

The contest winner gets to choose the theme for the next contest and the honor of creating the thread for it. They will also be recorded in the official "3SGTO Photo Contest Hall of Fame" thread.

The contest winner should post these rules in the thread for the next contest.


Important dates and poll info:

Entries must be submitted to this thread no later than Tuesday, September 21st at 9PM PST

The poll will start on September 21st.

The poll will close on September 24th at 9PM PST

Very awesome idea Macky. This might be the push I need to get my camera out and snap more shots. Now I just have to think of an idea.

I'm not the greatest photographer, but I'll add one anyways.

Footprints In The Sand

For not being a 'photographer', you captured a great feeling in your picture. I have seen some 'professional' (and I use that term SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO lightly) who's pictures are not very good....that's why I like to see all sorts of work, especially those who just dabble or are just getting started. Their work is more real and less processed. KWIM?
