cambodia 2 of 4: traditional (non-environmental) portraits
Challenge finished on Thursday, 28 Mar 2013
When we think of Cambodia, our thoughts naturally turn to Angkor Wat. But its people are incredibly photogenic. From monks, to adorable children, to adults working in their day-to-day lives, it's hard to find a person that is not worthy of a photograph. So, show us these images. Last week was 'environmental portraits--so, this week are traditional portraits. Typically, this means a much closer crop in on the subject. The subject may be looking into the camera. The lighting should add to the image, rather than detract from it. Entrants are required to (1) vote for each other entry, (2) read the comments (if any) below this challenge, in case I or other entrants post with Rules questions or clarifications, and (3) follow each of the challenge rules. **UPDATE** FOR THIS CHALLENGE, YOU **MUST** VOTE ON OR BEFORE TUESDAY. (IE, YOU HAVE ONLY 6 DAYS TO VOTE, INSTEAD OF 7 DAYS!!!!).

Simple = Beautiful
Challenge finished on Thursday, 28 Mar 2013
Show us the simplest photo you have made! Consisting of the least number of elements, it can still be attractive, informative, and self-explanatory. In other words, it should be simple at the moment of its creation, and not manipulated in any way. Our aim is to prove that Beauty IS Simplicity. Or vice versa.
Winner:
Yoga
Werli Francois
Brochure: Yoga school
Challenge finished on Wednesday, 27 Mar 2013
A local yoga school needs an image to put on the cover of their advertising brochure. The client is quite inexperienced and is therefore open to just about any image that invokes the idea of yoga. For the sake of simplicity, though, we want to restrict the photos to adults performing some aspect of this exercise. You can show a person performing a maneuver or just a hand position.
Winner:
Frozen morning sun
