POM - November 2013 - "Patterns"

Postby spankyham »

The theme this month is "Patterns"

Entries close November 21st - extended to 26th :)

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.

what should we do with this one? really wide open interpretive topic, so hoping we'll get at least 8 entries. I'll poke around my library and see if I've got anything suitable for entry. otherwise I need to get my fat bottom outside again for a "patterns" photo mission.

I don't think that would be a problem, lets give it a try... but perhaps lets have a limit at 2 and see what we get served up :)

Wouldn't you just be stealing votes from yourself? On the flip side, we can see more of you expressing your creativity Jabber.

Saddly one of the patterned ones I had thought about is now my fb profile picture so that might be a bit obvious now

As long as they're progressively raunchier than your entry last month :)

See that's a pattern right there, you can submit them as a triptic and have them be progressively raunchier as Spanky suggests.
