Weekly Photo Contest (Feb 2 - Feb 9)
Rules:
#1 You may submit only one photo per contest.
#2 The contest runs for exactly one week, from the time stamped on the first post in the thread (this will be made by the winner of the previous week's contest).
#3 Please refrain from commenting on the photos submitted in the contest. A good photograph is one that can appeal to someone who may not know much about the technical aspects of photography, so it would be best if the judge isn't swayed by someone else's opinion of the photograph.
#4 The judge will decide his/her favorite at the end of the week, place a post listing it, and include a short synopsis of why he/she chose that photo. The winner is then responsible for choosing a new topic and starting a new contest thread, which again will run for exactly one week.
This week's theme is "Urban Landscape/Street Photography"
Shot me your city shots.
I broadened the topic to include closer, street-style photography as well as general, "big picture" urbanscapes. I'm looking for images that describe some aspect of the personality of your city, or someplace you have visited. Famous landmarks don't get any extra points, but showing them in a unique way probably will.
Use color, black and white, creative use of light or any other form of creative abstraction (blur/contrast/grain/selective color) if it helps define the subject. Feel free to add words to describe the subject or your process.
The bottom line: have fun with it.
I'm looking forward to this weeks entries!
