POM - August 2013 - "Reflections"

Postby spankyham »

The theme this month is "Reflections"

Entries close August 28th (date revised).

Rules Rehash ....
1) Most importantly, this is meant to be fun. Anyone taking this too seriously, or getting upset about who wins and why will be taken out back and given a thorough thrashing.
2) Entries should not contain any infringing, threatening, false, misleading, abusive, harassing, libelous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory or pornographic content
3) It's got to be piccy's you've taken yourself
4) You can only enter one pic per contest
5) You can't vote for your own pic
6) Submit a version of your image 800Pixels wide. You can optionally submit a high res version as well. Please try and submit in JPG format.
7) You submit your image by sending me a PM with the link(s) to the image(s).
8.) Don't disclose the taker of any entry if you are sure of who took it - that includes your own image - but feel free to guess.
9) You can enter every month, but you can only use an image once - don't go submitting the same image in multiple POMs
10) You can use "in camera" techniques to enhance images but refrain from photoshopping. You can crop/resize images.
11) Stick to the theme
12) Winner picks next months theme

So remember rule 1, and get your entries in. I will post the entries as I receive them, and remember it is anonymous until we have a winner.

Only 2 entries in so far so the odds are pretty good for our entrants to get a win, unless of course there is a late entry or 2. So for August so far we definitely have quality over quantity :)

Entry-1

We've got at least three members I know of that list photography as a hobby so that should be a minimum of 3 entries each month! :gonnagetit:
