Well first and second place could not host the challenge so it look like I am up again. This theme will be action shots. The shots can be of humans, birds, mamals, etc. They can be sports shots, X game wannabe shots or just shots of people or animals having a good time. The key is the action.
The Challenge will close next Thrusday, February 23rd at 8 PM New York Time.
Standard Rules
The host gives you a topic of interest. You post a maximum of three images.
Any picture you've taken is eligible regardless of time taken and camera.
You can do all the post processing you want. However, it is most helpful if you list your camera and lens
along with your photo (because we like to know).
Feel free to comment on other contestant’s images. If you want people to give you constructive criticism,
ask for C&C.
The host chooses the winner. The host's decision is final. The host is not eligible.
The winner then hosts the next challenge, judges the winner, and passes on the baton to that person. The
winner has 48 hours to post the new challenge. If that doesn't happen 2nd place has 24 hours to do so, and
if that doesn't happen it's up to the 3rd place winner.
Posting Guidelines
When posting your picture, change the Subject of your post to display your picture titles. This way, when
someone comments (i.e. replies), it will refer specifically to you. If all entries read "Re: * Mini-
Challenge xxx * …" it would be very boring to scan the list.
Either embed your image in the thread or, if you must, supply a link to it. Keep in mind, however, most
people don't want to click to open photos hosted elsewhere (i.e. on your website).
You may enter up to 3 pictures, but try to put them within a single post. Please give a title to each photo
• this makes it easier to differentiate when giving comments.
Please size your photo no bigger than around 1200 pixels on the longest dimension.
This is to let those with smaller monitors to see your image at full resolution.
Please limit the file size of your entries to conserve bandwidth.
As a show of courtesy, and to save bandwidth, please remove the original post when replying, so you don't
bring back any previous photos.
