Photograpy Contest Starting! (+ a watcher feature)

Journal Entry: Fri Oct 16, 2009, 5:30 PM

Macro Photography Contest!



:spotlight-left:Well, it's time for photography contest #2, and the theme is macro photography! Anyone can enter!

For those of you who don't know what this is or need a refresher...
"Normally the term macro photography refers to images in which the subject is presented at a ratio greater than 1 to 1, so bigger than lifesize. It could be compared to looking at a subject through a magnifying glass."

:spotlight-left: Some of My Examples of What I Would Accept:



Hint: The key is being close to your subject, and detail.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

:spotlight-left:Prizes:spotlight-right:

:bulletblack: First place: 3 month subscription from =MichelleRamey + journal/news features
:bulletwhite: Second place: 1 month subscription from =MichelleRamey + journal/news features
:bulletblack: Third place: Journal features
(Features by =MichelleRamey =Ailedda ~arynsmommy =emerald-flint =fotografiske ~Doliath ~Da-Squid *Eresh-Kigal so far. Looking for more! If you'd like to offer to feature the winners, please, PLEASE don't hesitate to comment on this journal. ;) You can still enter if you do, of course, and you don't need a subscription to feature people in a news article!)

:spotlight-left:Rules/Thing you need to read:spotlight-right:

:bulletblack: Theme: Macro photography. (see above)
:bulletwhite: Deadline: December 1st
:bulletblack: Number of entries allowed: 1
:bulletwhite: Picture must have been taken AFTER September 1st.
:bulletblack: In the description/artist's comment of the picture you enter, please include "Entry for :icon michelleramey:'s (without the space) Macro Contest."
:bulletwhite: It is suggested that you add me to your watch list to keep up with updates or find out if you place/get honorable mention, but it is definitely not a requirement.
:bulletblack: To enter, send me a note titled "Macro Contest" with the THUMB to your entry.
:bulletwhite: If you would like to change your entry at any time throughout the contest, you may certainly do so by sending me a note titled "Entry change" with a THUMB to the current piece that you've entered, and a THUMB to the new piece you'd like to enter.
:bulletblack: If you plan to post on the contest (not the feature) forum, include "Magnify" in your post to prove you have read the rules, or you will not be accepted. :(

Good luck to everyone, and I can't wait to see your entries!

:spotlight-left:Watcher Feature:spotlight-right:

And now, a (randomly chosen) watcher feature, inspired by =Emerald-Depths. Thanks so much for your support everyone! :aww: Watchers- keep checking back, as I plan to do more in the future!

In alphabetical order:

:bulletblack:~arynsmommy:


:bulletblack:~Betweenthetwilight:


:bulletblack:=dkl78594:


:bulletblack:*Eresh-Kigal:


:bulletblack:*karenmel:


:bulletblack:~NikonZealot45:


:bulletblack:*tony566


And the reason that they're all photography isn't that I was biased or anything (as I said, I chose them randomly using the handy dandy "find" tool, my watcher list, and random letters and numbers) but because the vast majority of my watchers happen to do photography. :XD: Keep checking for more features!

Thanks for looking!
