Spec Comp November 2013 - 'Lest We Forget'

Post by Zymurgy661 » Sat Nov 09, 2013 3:12 pm

November Specialist Photo of the Month Competition

This month’s subject is: 'Lest We Forget' - Shots that evoke a sense of remembrance and/or memorial flypasts/flights

EDIT - For clarity, the image should contain at least one aircraft.

If in doubt, feel free to ask a member of staff!

Photography Competition Rules
1. Only one entry per user, unless posting on behalf of another person who is unable to do so themselves (children for example). If this is the case, please state so on your entry.
2. The photograph can have been taken at any time.
3. The image can be photo-shopped to some extent, levels changes, cropping, sharpening etc. are all acceptable. The photograph must retain it’s initial subject though, don’t make it something it’s not, (cutting and pasting the moon into the shot or another aircraft, for example). HDR images are not acceptable. If you are unsure, please PM a staff member.
4. The competition will remain open until 23.59 on the 1st December 2013, to enable anyone with last minute entries some breathing space.
5. The voting will be carried out by you, the members of FC - viewtopic.php?f=127&t=73830
6. Please do not comment on photos other than your own.
7. The voting decision is final.
8. All images must be posted in line with the usual FC posting rules.
9. Photos that are not within the guidelines of the competition are subject to being deleted.
10. The rules may be subject to change, and these will be posted on this thread.

Good luck!

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been,
