Doc Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Hi all! Thanks to all who put in entries for February's competition, and congratulations to all the finalists! I wish the purchasers liked the ghost horse image as much as the voters did!! Also, thanks to Phillippe for setting an interesting topic, and to Col for stepping in with the judging This months competition to go with my handle is "HEALTH" - any aspect, could be good health, bad health, healthy or not! Usual rules, max 3 entries per photographer, entries end at midnight 31st March, which will give me 3 weeks to work out how to do a pol! On my way to Spain this minute so will put some entries in in the next few days Cheers Kumar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Mitchell Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Tough challenge. But who could be healthier than Popeye, the man who introduced the world to the power of canned spinach. Here's a smart, health-conscious fellow using one of Vancouver's new "Butt Bins," cigarette recycling receptacles. They apparently turn the butts into plastic pellets.

Reimar Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I just stumbled onto this challenge thing. I'll play. Do I need to explain them, or give a title? Is there a post of how-to's and the rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCat Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Oh, yours are soooo right for the topic. Good for you. No "rules" beyond that you must have taken the photos yourself. Three entries each time. Some people don't put them all up at once. Some of us write something about our images. The only "prize" is that you get to pick the next topic and select the finalists. Of course, that means you also have to set up the poll. Arrrrgh. Good to have you with us. I think it is a lot of fun. Paulette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Thanks Paulette. I was worried that the ones I chose were too "stocky", but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 Ah! Setting up the poll....I will need to look that one up! Reimar - welcome and good choices of images - how can they be "too stocky" on Alamy I wonder? Kumar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Reimar - how can they be "too stocky" on Alamy I wonder? Kumar Hah. Good question. I wasn't sure about the criteria for a winning shot. It may be more along the lines of photo-club judge appeal rather than salability? Of course none of those shots have sold (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
