Hook Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 We've had some fantastic submissions for the photography competition over the past few months, and I hope this month it will continue. The competition is open to ALL members of the Sheffield forum whether you've got a camera phone or the latest professional DSLR so read on... The theme for September is 'wheels'. If you wish to submit an entry for the September competition you must register at http://gallery.sunset-studio.co.uk/. Once registered, head to the September Photo Competition album http://gallery.sunset-studio.co.uk/v/Sep08/. Open the side bar, and 'add items'. Please only upload one image per month. In the previous two months we have had to remove entries from the competition due to duplicate submissions. Although this is a 'bit of fun' we have rules to ensure a level and fair playing field. PLEASE follow these. Submissions are anonymous to other members, and the only person who can see the members name is myself. Images are automatically resized to 600x600px in order to ensure a fair playing field, and to protect the copyright of your images. Submissions must be made by the last day of the month. On the first day of the following month a poll will be opened in the Sheffield Photography forum, and will remain open until 14th to allow two weeks of voting. In the event of more than 25 submissions, a system of heats & a final will be used to decide the winner. All work must be your own, but any member of the Sheffield Forum may enter. We encourage everybody to have a go, and you don't need professional or DSLR equipment to be in with a chance. It's all in the moment. If anybody wants to submit their image and is having problems with the site, please just email it to me by 29th September. zxgr3@hook85.co.uk I'll then stick it on the gallery.. Good luck! -- To vote for the August competition follow the link below: http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=390189 -- The following categories are coming up in the next few months so get planning: October: Architecture November: Flora & Fauna December: Night in the City -- p.s please link to this topic in your signature if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marksherbert Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Why is the one of the black kids disqualified - it was taken at pitsmoor:huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 It was disqualified because the person who uploaded the photo uploaded more than one photo to that month's competition. It certainly wasn't because there were 'black kids' in it. Photos from anywhere in the world are welcomed in the competition as long as the person who took the photo is a member of the Sheffield Forum.

ImpInaBox Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I'll keep my thoughts to myself this month! Hopefully this subject is less likely to provoke the cute kid/cat/dog reaction and we can think about the entries as photographs standing or falling on merit.

melvyn Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 the picture of the kids on the cycle in August competition that was disqualified was taken in Ghana. In a village called Patriensa. They are private school kids (evidenced by the fact they have shoes!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
