Helping tinder out as he's got FTP-fatigue.

Send your entry to me (photocomp@bobweb.co.uk)

The Rules

You'll have until midnight Wednesday 21th September to submit to me via email your entry. Only one entry per person although you can change it until the deadline should you wish to do so. Please keep the size down to under 200kb otherwise my hosting patience and inbox will creak under the strain.

The photograph must be taken between 00:01am Thursday 15 September and the closing time.

No restrictions on format or technique, try to be original.

Please submit exif data with the picture for the curious among us.

Important! - Please title your picture with a brief description for ease of voting and let me know who it's coming from (your forum username)

On Thursday I will upload and post all entries with anonymity. You will then have until midnight Wednesday 28th September to submit the following week's entries and vote on the pictures on display.

The winner of the voting will have the pleasure of hosting the following week's competition.

No voting for yourself!

Voting criteria to consider in no particular order:

Use of technique
Composition
Impact

Prize
Obviously the adulation and recognition of your fellow snappers is the only reward you seek from participation in this competition. But, just to add a little je ne sais qoi to the week's proceedings, I'm offering a prize to the winner of the Week 7 competition. It's related to photography, it's not hugely expensive, and this particular prize was something I'd lost and have since found.

To up the ante, I'm offering a free item of photographic equipment for the winner of the week 7 photo comp. It's not a camera though.

I keep forgetting the comp starts from Thursday morning and so leave myself little time to take photos. :brickwall

Should we consider making it a bi-weekly comp?

I quite like it being weekly as it encourages me to go out and take more photos - that said it does seem to be a hassle for the winner of each round.

Would it be possible to have a 'global account' on an image hosting site with everyone having access to it - that way entrants can upload their own photos.

I've got a photo I can use, but people have already seen it :suspect:
So I'll wait until Wednesday, to see if I can come up with anything else.

Okey dokey. :thumbs:

I don't suppose absolute anonymity is essential - after a while you get to spot people's style anyway (presuming you have one :D)

Is "rubbish" considered a style? :(
